Piper where are you? We miss you so much. It’s only me and Rocket Rooster on security detail and it’s not the same without you. Mama is making your favourite dinner tonight—shepherds pie. We will save some for you ❤️

THE NIGHT THE STORM SPUN A RAINBOW TORNADO 🌈

At first it looked like lightning trapped inside a funnel… then the colors started to stack .. red to violet ... spiraling down from the cloud base like a glowing drill made of prism light.

The mountains were already fading into dusk when the storm cell parked itself over the ridge. Moist air rolled through the valley, the sky turned ink-blue, and that single vortex formed in the distance...bright at the core, shimmering at the edges, like the storm was twisting sunlight into a neon ribbon.

Hi everyone it’s actually Aces auntie T here 👋 my mum is currently being kept in hospital and if I could ask for your prayers we would be forever grateful 🙏 Ace is being well looked after by us all and is looking forward to playing with his best friend Teddy the Shih Tzu tomorrow. Please pray for her, thank you all 🤍🙏

The weather’s starting to lean in, and so is my anticipation.
Low temps turn the lake hard and brittle. Wind gives it a spine. Add snow and it all starts to move with intention.

I’ll be out there this week, watching it build and fall apart again. Where wil I be going? Not sure yet…

This photo was taken 1-15-26 with the new drone. From up there you can see the waves organize, stack, and then fold into the pier with a kind of quiet violence. It’s a perspective most people never get, not because it’s dramatic, but because it’s usually empty out there when the lake decides to speak.

Cold, loud, honest. That’s enough.

“You may not have known this, but today is actually my GOTCHA DAY - the day Mum and Dad first brought me home, exactly 16 years ago!

Here’s a puppy pic from around that time, also when I was in a particularly mischievous phase 😏”

First Aurora of 2026 last night 🤩

After great stats early on in the evening from an earth facing Coronal Hole we were then hit by a CME from a long duration C5.6 solar flare, initially radar was showing very little chance of seeing any stars and then around 10pm i noticed some gaps in the clouds and thought i'd pop out and at least have a go.
This was just before 23.00 and a few minutes later my sky was total clouds so got a little lucky 🙂

The aurora was seen down into northern France at 47N.

Before packing in an hour or so later i managed to capture some ice pillars with diffused aurora so glad i made the effort 😃

when multiple systems overlap at once.

Superheated rock flows across the surface while fragments from space enter the atmosphere at orbital speed, compressing air until it ignites into streaks of plasma. The glowing horizon is thermal radiation, shock heating, and particulate clouds scattering light under a dense sky.
Gravity, temperature, and velocity briefly intersect before the system resets.
Moments like this don’t happen often .. not because they’re impossible, but because the conditions have to align perfectly.

We’ve been a little quieter than usual and wanted to share a small update.

Pawmaw is currently in the hospital, and we’re working through next steps as far as her care. Dementia has been a challenging journey, but right now we’re hopeful and exploring assisted memory care options that can give her the support she needs once she is stable enough to leave.

This picture is Lenny and Lexie waiting on me to return from the hospital (photo credit to Daddy ) — they have been spending a lot of time here this week! 🐾

We’re taking things day by day and would appreciate prayers and good thoughts as we move forward. Thank you so much for your continued kindness and support. ❤️
