The first person to ever say the word 'blog' to me was a woman called Jen. She was a wonderful writer, a kind of witch with a life-long dream to see the Aurora Borealis. Sadly her life did not last long enough for her to see them.

I dedicate this blog to her memory. She liked what I wrote, and we encouraged each other. I opened the paper today to a piece on the Northern Lights.

It's a sign. I hope that Jen wherever she is, has a good view of the dancing lights over the North Pole.
