Some random bursts of northern lights tonight

[Red Squirrel]

Was just sitting in the backyard with my dad around the camp fire and saw some pretty intense northern light bursts for a short period. There may be more throughout the night I'll have to go outside to check.

Managed to pick it up even with my cell as I did not have my DSLR with me, kinda a crappy pic but crazy that it even picked it up at all. That's how bright it was. At one point there was beams just shooting right up in the sky.

Ooh, pretty. Nice spooky shade of green for the month of October.

I want to live where there's northern lights. So far north that summer gets knifed when it pokes it's head around the corner.

It is nice sometimes. The -40's and all the snow make it worth it. TBH we hardly even get -40's anymore. I remember like over a decade ago getting -50's. Your snot freezes inside your nose.

All I see in this grainy picture is an alien abduction beam.

Is there a statue?

Is there a statue?

No, there is a sign though, and people used to put mustaches on her face and stuff lol. Also had a building dedicated to her but it's an open pit mine now. Typical tax dollars at work.

Funny enough we have a lot of other famous people from here like Steve Sullivan and Son's of Maxwell but they never get as much recognition.
