Abandoned houses seldom turn out to be as empty as they appear. Voices fade, but echoes linger, intimately, sinking from room to room. And sometimes figures emerge from those shadows, if only in dreams. What could be more profoundly idiosyncratic than our nightmares? Always, there has been something personal about ghost stories. How surprising is it that so many concern writers in torment? — Robert Dunbar
Aurora Borealis - A strong storm produced some beautiful overhead displays of coronal openings! As we watched Lady Aurora dance up a storm, we were also treated to the sound of a Northern Saw-whet Owl tooting. Then shortly after a couple of Barred Owls calling "Who Cooks for You". What an awesome night!!!
11/25/2022 0 Comments Thanksgiving Treat!It's been a while since I have seen the Northern Lights. Color was faint, little wind and not freezing cold, so I decided to brave the winter weather. Out in the field next to our house I captured star trails with a little green. The light pollution to the north is coming from Reynolds but that was ok. It's always a special treat when the lights are out!!! 8/30/2022 0 Comments Storm Clouds12/12/2021 0 Comments Not Comet Leonard...Its A Fireball!Out trying to locate and photograph Comet Leonard but was unsuccessful. I did manage to capture the 1st part of a very slow-moving fireball. Of course, the latter half ended in fireball of green and was absolutely stunning!
It all started in 1940 with a little idea sparked from the soul of some local Threshermen over supper. The Nelson boys fired up the old Garr-Scott engine to thresh with steam again for old time sake with family and friends. The event continued once a year until 1954, when Western Minnesota Steam Thresher’s Reunion met formally for the first time and invited the public. Today the show has grown to include hundreds of demonstrations and exhibits spread over 210 beautiful acres. The show attracts thousands of spectators and volunteers every Labor Day weekend.
