The Sky Churns with Light

[Red Devil]

Aurora Lights....Northern Lights so beautifulIf you haven't witnessed the magic of the heavens in a brilliant display of Aurora Borealis you are definitely missing the best free lightshow on Earth. Also known as the northern lights, the Aurora Borealis are a wonderful 'freak' of nature that can be seen especially well in Canada’s Northern Rocky Mountains between mid August and mid October.

I saw them on a flight to London. It's even more impressive in person! They way it moves is so surreal.

I remember years ago during one winter you could see them all the way down here in Pennsylvania.
