Every month we go to the bridge near CSUS to watch the full moon. The last time, which was a few days ago, all the lights on the bridge were out. The darkness made for good stargazing; we picked out several satellites as we loitered there, waiting for the moon to rise.

Just before the Snyders arrived, I saw a huge flock of birds flying extremely high overhead. There were two V's, lit from below, which merged and separated and merged, so that they looked like ribbons of white light billowing across the sky. It was breathtaking.

In other news, I am twenty-three years old as of yesterday.

Thank you!

And it was seriously so cool. I've never seen anything like it before. Totally the right place at the right time. =)

I know what you mean.
One day was like that with an irridecent rainbow in Manito Park. Everyone there just kind of stood and watched it. It was the brightest one I've ever seen :)
