I live about 48 degrees North Latitude, so we don't get to see them very often, but back in 1983, there was a spectactular display in our area. Best I can describe it is think of neon red, yellow, and green transluscent shower curtains blowing in the wind. That's just a description of how they appear, but it doesn't BEGIN to give them justice! ‘Aurora Borealis’ MEANS “Northern Lights’ (Lord, this what happens when they stop teaching Latin or Greek!), just as “Aurora Australis’ is the southern hemisphere version.

Oh yeah. it's a TMP collar. Was gonna mention it yesterday, but I didn't want to post three times back to back. Lord, Iceland is an outdoorsy sort of place, isn't it? Very nice. And not only are there a multitude of natural outdoor environments, but there is also quite a bit of modern and even futuristic architecture. #63. Oh yeah. it’s a TMP collar.
