From Monday night to Thursday night, we have had some of the most spectacular auroras I’ve seen since coming to Alaska. It’s been a wild light show – green, pink, red, and purple, with lines and sheets of light, of color, that whips and flickers across the night sky. Normally we look to the north for the auroras, but last week they covered the entire sky, north, south, east, west, and directly overhead. It was amazing, and I came to understand they were visible as far south as Texas.
As it happens, I already wrote about the auroras, so, no real need to do that again.

But there have been some other events in the Great Land this week as well.
Holy cow bear attack! This happened in SE Alaska, on Admiralty Island, home to one of the Great Land’s populations of black-tailed deer.
