Good morning, Coeur d'Alene.

Last weekend, Northwest BachFest concerts honored the late Professor Elizabeth Buxton with a photo montage and a cello performance by Zuill Bailey—when visa issues kept Greek violinist Katarina Chatzinicolau from coming, he arranged for skilled players from the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. The concerts featured six works by Beethoven, Mozart, Reger, and Erno von Dohnanyi to show strong teamwork and skill.

Students in the outdoor studies program and Coeur d'Alene Garden Club members finished final touches on Lake City High’s xeriscape garden on Monday – they replanted the garden that had been in place for 13 years and added basalt sitting stools with a $1,500 grant and local expert help.

After weekend solar storms, northern lights were visible in dark rural areas across northern parts of Idaho and several northern states Monday night—space weather forecasters noted that the sun’s coronal mass ejection led to brief radio disruptions.

Authorities said a second burst on Monday may have produced extra aurora displays.
