Last Night

Last night, I stayed up to watch the signing of the bill ending the Democrats' government shutdown by President Trump.

While up, I also went outside to see if there's any visible aurora. 

Well, the bill signing went off without a hitch, putting an end to the shutdown.

Unfortunately, there was no aurora that I could see. I walked to a part of my front yard where no lights could wash out any views. There was no aurora that I could see.

I took the photo below from my porch. 

On Facebook, I posted it with this caption: The aurora is really impressive!

Six Mile Canyon

Since Six Mile Canyon of the Cibola National Forest will be closed to vehicles starting December 15 for the winter, I took another drive into the canyon for fun yesterday. I might as well ger as much driving as I can while I can.

I didn't see anyone else in the canyon during the drive. I stopped at an empty campsite and took the photo below. 

The Northern Lights, or aurora borealis, were visible last evening from Jamestown, New Mexico. I knew ahead of time they might be, but completely forgot. Tonight, maybe?
