Green Flash

I have seen the green flash three times. The first was in my early days in the Coast Guard while on an icebreaker headed for Antartica. The second time was while I was stationed on the coast of Washington State and the third time was while sitting on the beach in Key West and drinking a margarita.

The third time sounds like it might have been the best..

When I was in Aruba, we were treated every night to a spectacular sunset that normally found me sitting by the shore smoking a cigar with a cigar in hand.

I was repeatedly told to watch for the green flash, but never actually witnessed it.
