Im pretty much a stick in the mud, never putting any effort into eclipses, Northern Lights etc.

They got coffee table books for that! We have a photograph of the Kennicott mine out of Chitna Alaska, taken in the middle of the night showing a fabulous Northern Lights display. The Photographer told us he spent several weeks camped out in preparation for that one picture!

We showed our appreciation by buying one of the framed pictures, and never lost any sleep. I greatly admire others enthusiasm for something like this; i’m just too lazy or probably tired from working all day to want to expend the energy.
And i can look at this one anytime i like, look close; the reason he had to stay so long was to get the Lights, the Big Dipper and the North star; all at the same time! And this was before Photo shop or AI.

Meteorologists record "Winter" as December 1 through February in this part of the world. The University of North Carolina has used averages to rank US weather stations. You can fill the screen and then stretch the map with 2 fingers to enlarge an area. Apparently, I live in an area where the stations were 1st to 4th in the warmest ever!


Here's a picture.

had the full moon to the direct west of me this morning when the sun was coming up. clear sky and sunny and the cardinal is out there singing up a storm (ok, not a storm but definitely making a lot of sound :) )...
