These days, I'm absorbed in two communities in the social networking site that my oldest friend invited.
One is the community of the beginner violinists, and another is the community of the people who like the sky.
I don't have any friends who just started to learn violin in here, but now I have some (actually, lots of) fellows! I can read the bulletin boards and know how other beginners think.
And in another sky community, I can see lots of beautiful pictures of many kinds of skies, which the members moved and liked to put their pictures up.
I really enjoy reading the bulletin broads of these communities.
It's fun.

Your communities sound like wonderful ones. Have you gone to the Hubble website (I will see if I can find the address for you in a couple days; lots of wonderful photographs). Where I live it is very much in the country, so the stars are bright, undimmed by city lights. When I moved here was the first time in my life I saw what we call the milky way (I think in Japan it is called something like the river of heaven or something? When I was a small child living in Japan I remember the celebration of two separated lovers--a maiden and some humble boy--who only got to meet once a year. I thought it a touching story when I was 8. As I remember, they crossed that river of bright stars to reach each other. But it is possible I remember it wrong.
You remember well, Jarvenpa.
The story about the separated lovers is true, and the milky way is called as "The river of Heaven" too.
I've never seen the milky way clearly. The river in my memory is a very faint one.
Someday, I want to go Mongolia or somewhere, and see the night sky filled with stars.
I put the link about festival for the separated couple below.
We usually celebrate this on July 7th, the day said to be for this two.
