Northern Lights

PBS showed Shakespeare In The Park's version of Hamlet.  I love Shakespeare in the Park - some presentations are better than others - this one I'd give a 'B'.  (Though, in full disclosure, Hamlet has never been a fav of mine.)  During intermission I went out to see if there were any Northern Lights.  Had to let my eyes adjust to the dark.  Nothing due north but overhead out of Bootes I could see odd wisps of white.  I've seen these "white lights" before and knew they could be a harbinger.  Waited as darkness settled in.   The wisps began to form, reform, and become long rays.  The light was on in the workshop so I walked over and tapped on the window.  Phil looked up and guessed immediately what was up (so to speak).  Phil, Sheila and I stood out in the driveway and watched as the rays took on color and delicate movement.   Quite a beautiful show.  I've read that people can hear aurora.   Over the "aahs" and "oohs"?  I doubt it.
