Veterans Day Auroras

So....we met our friends Bert and Mary Ann at CJ Brown hoping to catch a glimpse of the aurora tonight and we weren't disappointed.

When we arrived, the cloud cover was still fairly thick, but even so we were getting peeks at auroras behind them. It was beautiful!

As the clouds moved out, the aurora began to pop...colors were awesome and we watched until our feet were numb from the cold and wind.

Meanwhile, I had set our security cams to record time lapses and one caught this buck in the aurora skies.
