Thanks for the Northern lights.. what fun you had... so you!!

@markthomas7270 Год назад

When I was stationed at Ft Wainwright for 3 yrs I would spend many hours out just sitting in car watching North Lights for hours, this was back in the mid to late 1970s!

@Dbusdriver71 10 часов назад

I was stationed at Ft. Wainwright from 87 to 91. The first time I saw the northern lights was a very crazy night. The Armorer reported a bayonet was missing. The 1SG spent most of the night yelling, banging on doors, cursing. What he is going to do to who ever took it as such. I remember a few guys from 2nd Platoon locked themselves out of their room so one stood at parade rest while the other ran up and down the side walk doing pushups every time he came back. Their squad leader wasn't amused with them. finally around 4 AM we had a company formation. The 1SG was making statements not having anything to do with anything and we would say 'hooah' after each time and then in passing, he said the armorer miscounted and that every good infantryman learns to cope with 'things' like this, 'hooah' and we would say 'hooah'. and then he pointed up to the sky and said 'look there are the norther lights'. This was the first time I was them. A night I will never forget.

So fun to have time with your sister. My Elder was able to see the lights in Wasilla this last week so that was cool

@ThisAlaskaLife Год назад

They were AMAZING last week. I will show them in video very soon!

@bnjlarsen5859 Год назад

We spent a week in Fairbanks last July. If you ever get a chance to go up during the summer, do the Discovery boat tour on the Chena River and go eat at the Pump House. It’s so funny that we hit every spot that you did on your visit, except for the ice obviously. Glad you had a great time with your sister and got to see the northern lights.

@ThisAlaskaLife Год назад

I would love to go back in summer. Thanks for watching!

Thank you Lauren,hope you told Santa we are all being good.

@brilliantbutblue Год назад

You got to see the Northern Lights twice!! How fantastic are the photos, though, that the tour company took 👍 I loved Santa's house, never too old for a little Christmas magic. The ice carvings, even though incomplete just seeing how it's done, are amazing. I loved every single moment of this trip. ❤️

@vickielopresti5767 Год назад

What s super few days, you had. And the best was seeing the beautiful Aurora Borealis! I love the Santa Clause House. We stopped there, after Delta Junction, coming in from the Yukon, heading towards Fairbanks on our 2nd visit, a bazillion years ago...when the Santa Clause house was smaller. Some year we will return! Thanks for taking us along. Vickie from SE Pa

@verashular3116 Год назад

Beautiful Northern Lights. That is #1 on My Bucket List but being handicapped now somewhat I doubt I will ever see them. I loved the Ice Sculptures. I have watched Somers in Alaska and Violet Logs for a long time. My husband and I took a cruise to Alaska years ago in September 2010 and I loved the clean air smell. The weather was beautiful. We went to Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway. Thank you for the showing the Chino Springs too.
