    Wow, It amazing to realize how such an everyday thing to see can be somethimg most people never have seen. I seen them all the time where i grew up. Here in the city I don't see them too often. But everytime I go back home, Love watching them dance.
    I kinda miss seeing them, they are so pretty to look at

    They are spectacular aren't they? A couple years ago, we had a spell where they were flaming red. It was amazing! We see them frequently here--not today cuz it's snowing like crazy!

    They are difficult to photograph. You need a tripod or something to stabilize your camera and a long exposure time.

    There's a musher's legend that when a sled dog dies it gets a silver harness on the other side. The Northern Lights are a reflection off those harnessess when the Bridge sled team is running. Every time I see them I stop and talk to my Hoodoo who is part of that team now.
    If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you must find the courage to live it.
