New Just saw the South Rim of the Grand Canyon a few days ago,
That's after seeing it back in 1974. Hasn't changed much. :)

I'll be at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon later this week. It's 1000 feet or more higher in elevation.

Under favorable conditions, you should be able to see the Aurora Borealis where you are. I saw them in Upstate NY.

New Can't find enough dark
I tried to see the Perseids, but couldn't find someplace dark enough within a reasonable distance.





Damn, that's four natural phenomena I want to see.



And the return of Haley's Comet ... five ... five natural phenomena ...

New "Halley's", IIRC. Unless you're thinking of *Bill* H...
...but his Comets were plural... And I'm fairly sure they won't make any comback, at this stage.

Yes Mr. Garrison, genetic engineering lets us correct God's horrible, horrible mistakes, like German people. - [link|http://maxpages.com/southpark2k/Episode_105|Mr. Hat]

New I'd be 99 when Halley returns.
I wouldn't mind that too much, under the right circumstances. But [link|http://www.uc.edu/geology/geologylist/cometphotos.html|it wasn't much to see in 1986 in Cincinnati].

[link|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_Halley|Wikipedia] has more info. The [link|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Daylight_Comet_of_1910|Great Daylight Comet of 1910] must have been something to see.

Cheers,
Scott.
