  1. Last night was the first time I'd seen the northern lights with the naked eye. I went to Baylor Park along with about 500 others.

    1. Growing up as far north as I did (and in very dark skies), I have many memories of seeing the aurora as a kid. Glad you had the chance to experience it; your photos came out pretty well.

      Photos I saw from last night from "back home" showed auroral glow, curtains, and even some corona. My hope is to one day see STEVE, one of the best stories of scientific naming (a "backronym") that there is.

      1. The sad thing is that if I had given up on the Timberwolves a little sooner, I could have seen the peak.

    2. We went past Baylor Park too, but we couldn't see any aurora.

      Granted, it being 4:30 probably had something to do with it.

  2. Happy 46th Anniversary of Robert Pollard's Collegiate No-Hitter for all who celebrate (which might just be freealonzo).

    1. I'm going to celebrate by walking to a dive bar and drink Miller Lite while watching the Twins.

  3. This is a very frustrating game, and I'm sure it's frustrating for the Twins, too. It's one where you just have to step back and remind yourself that, as the saying goes, "that's baseball".
