Maybe not you, yet. What a totally awesome photo! Kind of looks like a strange green genie coming out of a bottle. Or an absolutely wicked sort of tornado. Reminds me when me & my brother used to lay out on the driveway late at night & imagine all kinds of things from what we'd see in space. Just REALLY OFF THE HOOK!! Hey Carl- What’s up!?

I haven't gone to bed yet. I just watched the movie "Shackleton" - what a crazy trip that was. Ironically, it's snowing a veritable blizzard outside right now. Thanks for the comment - yes, it's an amazing scene. Everyone should try to see the northern lights once in their life, I think. Simply amazing. Cheers Carl Hey Beth,

I tend to agree, they are an event where you can just lay on the ground and stare into them for hours on end.

Yeah, they're really something else. One of those things I'll never tire of enjoying. Cheers Carl Hey Mark,

However we did see a lot of similar scenes to the one at the bottom of the page. And, going back to an earlier comment of yours, the truth is that you suddenly turning up in 1969 prevented your mother and I from going to Woodstock (but it hasn't all been bad). Cheers,Dad Hello Carl,

I think the guide you had for your trip probably was underpaid, and provided what you paid for. This, ole fella, is Alaska, and it ain't cheap. As for your comment about 'scenes at the bottom of the page', rest is a critical component of good health. Sorry you didn't get to go to Woodstock. Cheers Carl Hey Dad,
