Did anyone catch the Aurora Borealis last night? Supposed to be tonight, too.

No luck here in the western Bronx.

I’m far enough north, but I can’t see it. Won’t stop me from trying again tonight, though.

They thenselves face the wrong way.

Bc the people who faced the right way aaw it, and one photographed it the last time it happened!
A bit of envy here.

While it wasn't AB related onetime in the very late 80's, very early 90's we in the NYC area had hazy skies for a couple of days from fires blowing smoke up from ?Tennessee, or Kentucky.

We had a faint smoky smell, but yours might be worse?

Born in the Bronx
Parents disappeared
Me when I was three

Wished to re-connect
Butt too old now and
WiseAss for local TSA

Don't know anyone in
El Salvador nor Sudan
Left with my Bronx

Fantasies in the end...
