A Solstice Night in Paris 
June 28, 2019 

The night of June 21 was the shortest night for planet Earth's northern latitudes, so at latitude 48.9 degrees north, Paris was no exception. Still, the City of Light had an exceptionally luminous evening. Its skies were flooded with silvery night shining or noctilucent clouds after the solstice sunset. 

Hovering at the edge of space, the icy condensations on meteoric dust or volcanic ash are still in full sunlight at the extreme altitudes of the mesophere. Seen at high latitudes in summer months, stunning, wide spread displays of northern noctilucent clouds are now being reported.

Think how cool it would have been to be wealthy in the early 20th Century and travel by rail to all the big hotels in the Rockies. It was a more civilized age.

When you are wealthy in any age, you can afford to stop and smell the flowers.

 I was told that if you see a curl of smoke in the mountains to stay the hell away.  Many times it's bootleggers and they don't like visitors that smell like government.

The above undoubtedly can be added to with: or Marijuana growers.

Much illicit marijuana is grown in federal and state forests. Grow it on your land, get caught, land is forfeit. Federal and state land used for the purpose is forfeit free.
