Guest guest Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 Janine > I saw the Northern Lights, red, white and a > weird green. I have a wonderful screen saver and background that is of the Northern Lights. www.webshots.com, has some beautiful photos of the Northern Lights - that is where I get all of mine. Other than on my computer screen I have yet to see the Northern Lights ;-( - my own fault because I am usually busy when they are out and about. > How long is the sun out this time of year? Well the sun starts rising around 8:30am and starts setting around 4:30pm, so that makes 8 hours of sunlight right now. Pretty soon it will be down to between 5 & 6 hours. Did you come up for a visit or live up here? > I went on a dog sled ride and because I was the > only one out in that > weather, the guy let me drive the dogs and sled > myself. LOL Man, that's > hard! Those dogs are powerful and that sled is > hard to break with that > little thing you step on to dig into the snow. I sponsor one of G.B. Jones' dogs (Floyd) and GB is always trying to get me to learn how to drive but I am not all that interested in the driving aspect. I love working with the dogs and helping take care of them as well as ride in the sled. Now when summer training is going on, I certainly do not mind steering the 4-wheeler but the sled is a bit much. > I love it up here as even now with a 10 degree temp with wind chill of minus 9, it is beautiful out and a bit chilly but not half as bad as the eastern coast.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 Oh girl! You gotta get out to see those lights! I was there when I was in the military for one of our exercises. Brim Frost '89. So yeah, duh, I was there in 1989. I was in Italy in 1990. Aww, go drive the sled! It's not often people get to do that. It's like making a lemon meringue pie from scratch. At least you can say you've done it. Once is all it takes. Anchorage would be a good place to live, or one of the warmer islands. Happy Thanksgiving to you too, and everyone else here.
