Northern Lights!


Although I did not take these pictures (they are copywrited to Jan Curtis), this is an almost exact look at what we could see yesterday morning at 5:30 AM! Pat has been at work by 6, so we're up early, and he gave me a call yesterday to go outside and watch the lights! They were spectacular! I did try to take my film camera out, but no luck! It looked like a green banded rainbow, but when you watched for a moment, the light would flare up and flicker up through the sky like a fire flame, only huge! It's really difficult to explain, but amazing to behold! I watched for around 30-45 minutes! Later that day, I heard many people had been watching them the night before, so they had been active all night! What an incredible light show that God gave us!
