I only did not have much time lately. It will come. Happy birthday, then, Nawnie. 2052 ? That sucks. I saw one about ten years ago, so I thought it was not that infrequent... Cheers, T.

It was a wonderful sight to see and capture! From what I have read this sighting will not come around until the year 2052. Such a great gift from above... This day was my birthday in the year 1955.
