Today I'm talking with Morgan at Groovy Grazers in Montana. Good morning, my friend. How are you? Good morning. Good morning. It's a wonderful morning after getting to see the Northern Lights. Did you get to see them? It was so weird. I got up at like...
00:57 1130 when my husband came to bed last night because I had to go potty and uh I went outside on my porch for some reason. I don't usually usually just come back to bed and I was looking out the window. I could see this red orangey color off in the distance. I did not have my glasses on and I was like, oh no, what's on fire over there? Yeah. And I was going to put my glasses on when I came upstairs and look out the bedroom window and I was like, if it's on fire, it's too far away to impact us. And I went to bed. I went to sleep.
01:27 Got up this morning and looked at the local Facebook page for our town and somebody had posted, what's the red glow on the west side of town? And people were posting so many pictures in the comments and I was like, I missed it. Well, I mean, you kind of saw it. I saw the red, my husband got pictures and he got the blues and greens. Wow. So up here it was red and green. Yeah.
01:55 And it was bright. And you know, I always wanted to see the Northern Lights. I was on my bucket list. I thought I was going to have to go to Alaska. I mean, I really wouldn't have had to move up to Montana to even see them at this point. But they were red and green last night and dancing. They'll dance too. It looks like almost like glitter in the sky to the naked eye. But the fact that you're able to see the actual red and green without the camera lens is pretty crazy because that's like
02:24 Alaska, you know, style Northern Lights where you can see them dance in the sky. So we, guess you're supposed to again see them tonight. So we're really excited. We'll go out again.

Yeah, that is wild to me. I had friends that were in, you know, Billings because we're kind of on the outskirts.
02:54 And they were posting pictures of a two full blown light pollution. And normally it has to be pretty pitch, you know, pitch outside to be able to capture it in a long exposure. was capturing it without a long exposure. I mean, cool, but also scary tinfoil hat, you know, style thing where I'm like, my husband jokes around. He's like, should we be putting tinfoil hats on now when we go outside to look at these? And we couldn't help but really laugh at that because it is.
03:23 It is from the sun having solar flares that we're able to see these. Yeah, exactly. And it's really cool and it's really pretty. But yes, it's concerning.
