They also said there were some great pictures from the last couple nights out near Stillwater, but I haven't seen those yet.
I would be willing to stay up late for something like that. I'll gladly go out into a field at night, no matter how cold, and view the auroras, or any other celestial events. I'm getting back into astronomy and other stuff like that.

My regret is not being far north enough to see the auroras.

Big thanks to both of you. One of the things I want to do is see the aurora borealis. I could give the details of my reasons, but I won't. Let's just say it's something near and dear to my heart.

I know the feeling about the bucket list. I won't give much detail, but my reason comes from a childhood fantasy of mine, mostly spurred by watching The Wild Thornberrys on Nickelodeon.
