I drove south on the Parks Hwy since clouds had moved in, to a nice spot and got a few but the clouds were moving in faster then I could drive further south lol. I was messing with my camera and am not real happy with what I got. Oh well, next time I'll go back to shooting in jpg.

Now that is eerie. Mother Nature cracking her whip!
(I was not sure about the spelling of the word "eerie" so I googled it:
The spell-check on the forum allows either spelling. I think either way is acceptable.ee·rie
ˈi(ə)rē/
adjective
adjective: eerie; comparative adjective: eerier; superlative adjective: eeriest
1.
strange and frightening.
"an eerie green glow in the sky"

Heard that; I spend more time trying to please the spell checker than actually write the post. That's why my posts are short and few.

Well it's almost Solstice. This year I will have a Solstice party to celebrate my 10 years in Alaska. We are a bit below 4 hours of sun light and it will get a bit shorter. But after Dec. 21, we will start to get our light back. These were both taken from the University of Alaska Fairbanks which sits on a hill overlooking town facing south. As you can see, our sun rises in the south east and sets in the south west.

That's crazy. It was daylight all the time when we were there. We never experienced total darkness. The daylight all the time messed me up bad enough.

Yep, 24 hours of daylight in the summer.

I am so jealous and I so admire you....... Thank you so much for taking the time to post this stuff.....Did I say already that I really hate you and you make me feel like a total wuss because I have always wanted to spend some real time up there and have never had the courage to "just up and do it" I really do admire you. Thank you again. If you ever get back to Oklahoma for any reason please let me know and i will be glad to buy dinner and drinks or whatever.....
Lol I was groomed for the move here my whole life though. My dad was a gypsy and we moved constantly. It was not a life of traditional stability but it did teach me really good skills about how to go to new, totally unknown places and feel comfortable really fast. It taught me a good sense of direction and how to read maps. I developed a love for maps very early on. Anyways, I continued on with that wandering life as an adult. Until I found Alaska 10 years ago. This is the home of my soul that I have been searching for my whole life and never knew it until I got here. Anyways, enough with the rambling Alaska lurve. Next time I get south, I would love to hang out.
