See that green glow allll the way over there in the distance? THAT WOULD BE ME. AND MY FRIEND ENVY. WE ARE PRETTY CLOSE RIGHT ABOUT NOW. *wistful sigh*

Yeeeaahhh, I realize the effect these posts must be having on all of my LJ friends. I feel a liiiitttle bit bad. BUT MOSTLY NOT VERY BAD AT ALL. >:D

I've got to say, I'm just a little jealous. At least you're probably a little too far south to catch any of the super aurora borealis events that are supposed to be going on right now. ;P

One of these days I seriously need to come out to visit you on the big Island.

[zolac_no_miko]

Ohhhhhhhh, dammit really? ...I am going to need to make a trip to Alaska or something so I can see the aurora, I've never seen it and I REALLY WANT TO. TT_TT

Yes! You seriously do! And will need to visit you in Bellingham again sometime, and/or do some more backpacking trips with you.

Yes! Methinks I see the beginnings of a plan here. I try and get out to visit you in Hawaii this winter when I need to escape the long dark that persists this far north. Then you come visit me in Bellingham next summer and we take the ferry up to Alaska and do some backpacking.

Of course, if you felt like visiting any time sooner than next summer you'd be more than welcome.

I've seen the Aurora twice in my life once in Bellingham, and once in Walla Walla shimmering green curtains. The Bellingham display was much more impressive.

And in a related phenomena they've just discovered relatively large quantities of antimatter trapped within the magnetic field of the Earth's Van Allen belts.
