    :p

    That is their new location. I think the company was sold years ago and the name changed to modernize. They used to be located on Danville Corner Road in Auburn. We knew the former owner.

    Here is where they were located for decades:

    My bricks that I built my house came from Danville. I was across the road at the truck stop last night. You know the area I take it

    Actually, I haven't been there since the late 70s.

    Those are auroras.
    Several days ago the sun had a Coronal Mass Ejection that blew $- hit mega tons of plasma our way
    Supposed to have been the biggest CME in the last 75 (?)
    years with the equivalent energy of something like a Billion atomic bombs.

    .....that's a lot btw for those using the metric system

    Woh woh woh, this is supposed to be a family friendly forum! You can't just go around talking about CMEs.

    And since when did you acquire interest, skills, and knowledge in sients?

    Picture taken in Bremen GA

    Same as @PSOVLSK noted; I have never seen the sky like this in West Georgia.

    @BlueBirdMusic @PSOVLSK - are these photos of Auroras? Did you guys know about this? I just saw an article that said this is a thing happening right now, talking about visibility as far south as Alabama.

    @msg - The solar storm that caused the auroras has been in news stories for a week or so. I read and listened to several of them and knew it was going to happen, but not the extent of what occurred. Tennessee was thought to be the most southern state where visible.

    I have known about the Northern Lights for most of my life and never expected to see anything like them. In Georgia, the auroras occurred all around north Georgia and all the way southeast to Tybe Island close to Savannah.

    Those pictures I posted were taken by my cousin about 50 miles west of Atlanta away from the city lights, and in the country. As a kid, I used to enjoy the sky not bothered by city or town lights.

    I first heard of Jackie Stewart by looking at Aurora® slot car sets in the local Zayre® store as a child.

    Northern Lights (NL) 2 nights ago....really awesome! Couple of years ago I visited my son/DIL when they were stationed at Fairbanks, AK, and never saw the light show. Had to wait until the "NL's 2024 North American Tour...Lower 48". LOL

    Inland PNW. We used a light pollution map to find an area 20 minutes outside of our city for the best view. https://www.lightpollutionmap.info/#zoom=5.66&lat=47.4681&lon=-118.3720&state=eyJiYXNlbWFwIjoiTGF5ZXJCaW5nUm9hZCIsIm92ZXJsYXkiOiJ3YV8yMDE1Iiwib3ZlcmxheWNvbG9yIjpmYWxzZSwib3ZlcmxheW9wYWNpdHkiOjYwLCJmZWF0dXJlc29wYWNpdHkiOjg1fQ==

    Quick stop by Dairy Queen for Blizzards and off to see the show. Used my Samsung phone camera in manual mode where I was able to adjust aperture and shutter speed. Best pics taken when I laid on the ground facing up, rested the phone on the brim of my hat and right up next to my forehead. Used hands and brim as a tripod. Quite the funny sight I was.

    Hopefully, the animated GIF's upload properly and you can see them.....

    Full cloud cover here last night -- again. 3 out of 3 auroral chances. :(
