Notions of a Texas Ranch Girl

I saw the light... I saw the light..

Praise the Lord, I saw the (Northern) Lights. 

 

I finally saw the northern lights, and took a few photos too.  I frozes my toeses, but it was worth it.   Not as spectacular or fast-moving as I expected, but a truly amazing part of God's creation.   Once I got back to the house, Tristan and Nathan were still awake, and were able to just look out the kitchen window and see them. (hmmm... makes me wonder if the frozen toes were worth it... yes - it was).

 

I posted two photos on my juneau photo blog.  But here's my favorite with the big dipper in it:

The heavens truly do glorify God! Nature is such a wonderful gift the Lord has given us, and shows us so much about Himself!

Oh, those are SO COOL! They don't even look real! I *think* we're supposed to be able to see the northern lights here too. (western WA) But I've never seen anything like that!
