The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades... Maybe it's just the drugs?

Anyhow, my back feels like somebody ran over it with a snow machine. Not quite as bad as if it would have been a car, but I can sure tell somebody's been digging around back there. Not moving around a whole lot...

Something?

There is just something I like about this view/picture. Maybe I am just strange. Haha

Our Aurora Experience



This is the time lapse video of the show that we saw while we were in Alaska. We really couldn't believe it was actually happening in front or our eyes. It was so unreal!

This video represents the whole evening from Sunset to Sunrise.

Johnny is catching some rays!

Some right wing league fun



I was the only guy that didn't hit an "innocent" last night. They are indicated by the lighter colored silhouettes.

Don't freeze Mountain Dew



It doesn't "dew" well... ;)

Snow Machine



I was supposed to record a part of my ride, but this was all I got. I guess that's what I get for trying to iPhone through my gloves...

Hump pictures before, and one "after"

I guess I took too many pictures on my phone to limit them to just my blog. So, I made a set on Flickr... You can click the link below to see the pictures and a few videos. What a cool adventure it was for all of us!

This is a shot that Troy (The guy who ran the ski lodge and the web cam) took while we were shooting Aurora.  You can see my tripod off my right shoulder (left side of me in the picture).  Nice Aurora in the background.  You can see how we had to bundle up...

Julie and I passed the taxi time by making jokes out of the cartoons on the flight safety briefing card.

For this one, I said "It's ok to evacuate in the water but don't evacuate in your briefcase". Haha!

Our trip to Alaska!

I have posted all my pictures on Flickr, like I normally do. You can see them all here:

Click the link if you dare. There are a lot of them...

Sled!

We have a big day planned with the boys tomorrow.

We are spending the afternoon at the Duke Energy Center! I don't know who will enjoy it more, The boys or Julie and I?!

The sound of -15 degrees, walking



This is what it sounds like to walk on the cold snow... You can tell if you are still on the path because the crunch goes away just before you start to sink... ;)

Note, this is just audio. It's dark at 1:30 in the morning...

2012 Awana Program



The boys both had parts in their Awana program the other night. Sorry that we didn't invite everyone, but Julie and the boys were both pretty sick and we didn't know if they were going to make it or not. On top of that, we didn't want ot infect anyone else. It turned out the teachers still wanted them to go, but just not sit with the other kids. They both did well and I was proud of them. So, since you didn't get to see it, here it is. I think I captured everything they were involved with... ;)

You might want to go set some popcorn.

And another set...

Julie's version of Fuzzy Wuzzy...

Fuzzy Wuzzy needs a shave.
He looks like he must live in a cave. 
If his wife's ire he braves,
While sleeping he will soon be shaved!!!
