When I heard there was a meteor shower happening this mild October night I figured a great place to watch the sky would be at the beach. I was planning to watch meteors so I was very surprised when I seen the faint moving glows dancing over Lake Michigan.. The Northern Lights made an appearance in the Chicago area. That doesn't happen very often so I was very lucky to experience this.
