Across the Starry Sky
The time was around the 1960s.
Towns were usually bustling communities and the car industries starting to look bright. Telephones, smaller computers and even robots were making the news. Space travel was no longer a dream and the thought of extraterrestrial life was looking more likely. The medical community was also making extreme strides for the betterment of the country.
The town was called Wind Point. Not big enough to be called a city, but it was by no means a small town. The down town area was a bit shabby with run down homes and pale pale paint jobs. People for the most part stayed out of each other's bussiness, crossing paths when there was business to be done. In the upper part of town, building were close together and less likely to be damaged or abandoned.
During the night, the down town was mostly quite. The city lights didn't quite reach there, leaving the darkness to its devices. One good thing about such a potentially scary idea was that the stars were really quite beautiful on that side of town.
