Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!

Well, well, well.

Here we are mid-week, with what seems to be weather that is all over the place!

Snow on Monday, Northern Lights on Tuesday, sunny skies on Wednesday!

In Tennessee we rarely get to experience the Northern Lights, and that is why last night’s rare opportunity felt amazing to me! Greg and I both got to see the colors from our property, and I plan to try again tonight. It’s like God’s own fireworks show.

My phone camera is a little messed up, but I still clicked away! Greg got better sharpness, but I’m still happy with what my phone captured.

Here are a few of the shots.

Let me know if you saw them also, and where you live!
