Blast-off!

The aurora showed up last night around 10:30 pm and looked like it was really going to blow up around midnight.  Instead, the wind cranked up to around 40mph!  Luckily, it was really warm, but it was blowing so hard it was almost impossible to keep the camera from shaking, even though I was hiding behind the end of the house.   Clouds were blasting across the sky, and then completely covered it around 1:30 am.
