Auroras, Anniversary, and Car Repairs

The Milky Way and Aurora Borialis as seen from my back yard tonight.

Missus got a message from a friend asking if we could see the Northern Lights as well tonight from our place down in the valley as she could up in the mountains where she lives.  So we all went out to check it out.  It was by far the most vivid display I have ever seen. 

I can remember an amazing fireworks show I once saw from the roof of the house out in Norwalk when I was five, but that would have been 1976, and the 200th Anniversary of our country, so, not the Northern Lights. 

Today has been Veteran’s Day here in the US, so Rememberance Day in the UK.  You know what that means?  It was also our 23rd Anniversary.  I don’t think either of us believe it, either.  But nontheless, here we are.  We had a chance to spend some time together and to have a good conversation and such, so it was really, really pleasant. 

I got the tire fixed on the car today, too.  Not exciting at all, I know, but it did turn out to be a fence staple.  I was none to thrilled for it being there.  I took it in for the fix, so that meant I had it patched on the inside, and not just plugged. 

Well, that’s all the news that fits in print.
