If you're unable to see the aurora from where you are, the University of Alaska's Geophysical Institute has a couple of aurora cams. One at explore.org/livecams/aur..., too. It's still a bit light here for great viewing

I had fun being a slipper today. Auntie Slipper, size 100. 😄 Halloween fun! #rockyourmocs

Excited to share that my beadwork appears in Alaska Bride & Groom magazine! ✨
The bride and groom wore beaded slippers I created. 💕

Find the issue on newsstands or online at alaskabride.com.

Congrats Maddelyn and Robert! 💕
A pair of fur-trimmed hard bottomed slippers with intricate beadwork designs. The smaller pair features purple and blue fireweed and wildflower patterns, while the larger pair displays red salmon surrounded by fireweed. Both pairs rest on a light background, highlighting the detailed craftsmanship and vibrant bead colors.

There were several nice bursts last night. The first was around 930pm (what an early treat!). This is another bigger one about 125am. This timelapse covers about 5 minutes of time.
