Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Lions, Tigers, & Bears, OH MY! No, spiders and snakes poll.

Here’s a colourful one. I was clouded in so maybe tonight

 

I don't think that's the proper wording.

 

Amazing! I’m struck at the variations in color and definition!

My only experience with direct viewing was years ago heading up to Rangeley ME. Giant blob of green that grew more intense the further north we got. No striations either.

 

It was pretty amazing. It’s the second time in my life I’ve been able to see them. The other time was back in my high school days, living in Dalton, Ga near the Tennessee state line. Both times it was the pink color.

 

From one of my friends on the edge of town.

 

We could see lots of shimmering, but not a ton of colors. The cameras picked up the colors better. Our youngest was out taking some pics, so I'll see what he got.

 

Even though I was up at 11:00pm and 3:00am, the city is too bright to see anything. And I was too unmotivated to go for a drive to get to some dark skies. Loving the pictures people are posting, though!

 

Hen party for 30 inside today, rain outside. Guess who'll be in the shop all afternoon? (Not that it's an unusual place for me to be...) Nice to have a safe space.

 

You'll never guess who came back.

Spoiler: I bet you can totally guess who came back

 

Grandson and I were outside like idiots oohing and ahhing taking pictures.
Supposed to be out again tonight.

 

I forgot about the Aurora and went to bed early. I hope they are visible again tonight.

 

Trim those claws!

 

That’s the thing about the Aurora’s. They’re Never Boarialus.

As long as it measures in “Atmosphere’s” clearly displayed in Dynes it may be a knock off.

 

Got phase II ready for deck boards. Not bad considering we didn’t start digging the last 5 holes until yesterday at 4:30 and it was just Cole and I working on it.

We were gonna go 24’ x 32’ but the end would have been so high we decided to go 24’ x 24’.

I’m gonna try to muster up enough energy to go shave and shower. I’m wore out.

 

That’s a party deck!

 

We use bars here, mister.

 

Might need a different zip code. Looks Great
