in reply to When it is dark outside I am happiest to see ...

Stars/planets are nice and all but any decent clear dark night makes seeing that possible. Seeing the northern lights on the other hand is not as common an experience where I live.

    I live way, way up in an extremely remote part of Northern British Columbia, Canada, and Aurora Borealis is a somewhat common experience, and because there is NO artificial lights whatsoever, it is very visible. I'm blessed to be able to sit by lake or simply look out a window whenever I desire and observe it when it occurs.

    To boot, my wife is a sky expert, so she researches every day, and can pretty well predict with great accuracy when they will occur.

      Sweet! Sadly it's been several years since I last saw the Aurora Borealis... but it was awesome.
