Well as most of you know they (the Government) had TikTok shut down on 1/18/2025 Saturday evening about 9:15pm central time. A little over 12hrs later it was up and running again on Sunday 1/19/2025. It seems a bit different now and there are many discussions concerning how or what sacrifices TikTok had to make to get the servers back going. To quote an old phrase “the jury is still out on this one”. I will tell you that because of the fact Meta had a part in all this and most of our Congress invested in Meta, I am deactivating my Facebook and my Instagram accounts. I wonder how a company owned by international investors, run by a CEO from Singapore, had it’s servers here in the states was consider and described as Chinese. Very strange. I will say I enjoyed the app. I didn’t create much on there, however I enjoyed much of the peoples’ videos, their opinions even though I didn’t always agree. It worked very differently than all of the other social media apps. I hope they haven’t destroyed it with all this theater. Until next time, 73 and may the Father’s blessings go with you.

Living in the Midwest, specifically southern Illinois we seldom get the opportunity to see the Aurora. However here of late it seems to be happening more often. Last night was one of those nights. We drove to the spot where there was less light pollution and we caught some wonderful views. My phone camera was easily blurred. However my wife and daughters phones did very well. I have included some of the pics from all the phones. We hope you enjoy. 73 and may the Father’s Grace go with you!
