- The Sticks, Northeast PA.
When I moved to Northeastern PA. 30 years ago, it was way in the sticks. After 10 PM, you'd have to drive 15-20 miles away to get gas. There was nothing open. I used to sit on my deck at night and see all the stars and the jets flying east to NYC or Philly. Over the years the big box stores opened and huge 24 hr. gas station plazas opened. So, now, even a 1 AM, it looks like dawn. The stars are gone, can't see the jets, the sky is like a pale milk. Light pollution. Yeah, it's nice having all that stuff, but I wish we could have kept the stars.
