It rained on Friday and it rained today, Sunday. But yesterday.....Glorious! I went to the Sled Dog grocery store and bought a pack of hot dogs, buns and chips. Laura came down from Fairbanks and bought marshmallows and graham crackers. We loaded up the cars with Moody, Daniel, Andrew, Riley and Kelly and went out to 8 mile lake. We soon had a roaring fire, put hot dogs on a stick and filled out tummies with lots of goodies. When it got dark around 11, the show began. The northern lights gave us a nice show! Daniel had worked on whittling a stick for quite some time. Laura accidentally broke it while we were trying to take a picture. Andrew captured a classic look of uh-oh on my face. We laughed and laughed!! Too bad my picture doesn't convey how awesome the lights were.

you don't know how jealous i am. while i'm sitting in a classroom trying to remember what a valence electron is and how it is significant to a polar covalent bond, you are camping and watching the northern lights. I say boo.
