What a touching story Mike ! Thanks for sharing it with us.

 

Maybe one needs to be a child to really hear the loudnes of silence

and to dare ask others if they can hear it too?

 

 

Jan:

 

I never had the opportunity to see strong Aurora Borealis, from here

only the occasional faint Aurora can be seen about once a year (since

this is well south of the arctic circle). I have only seen the Aurora

on film and heard it related.... but yes, it must be a spectacle loud

on the eyes as well as the ears, one of nature's beutiful sights.

 

If I remember correctly, Michael Hortling that used to be a member of

the list (is he still here?) has seen the joy of the Aurora Borealis.

 

 

 

Love,

 

Amanda.
