This is the most beautiful time of year to be outside – especially at night.  There are always lots of things to do and places to go, but sometimes the best dates are those where you simply enjoy being together in a quiet place.  The spring sky at night is usually very clear – why not plan some time to sit out under the canopy of stars and listen to the quiet together!  If you more adventurous – climb on your roof; it’s secluded and gives you a completely different perspective of the night sky – Sounds perfectly wonderful, doesn’t it?
