Busskipper, don't feel bad about not waking the kids -- we were in the San Juan Islands (Washington state) and saw the aurora one night -- got the kids out of bed -- could not wake them for more than a moment at a time, and they remembered nothing the next morning! This was 30 years ago.
The aurora looked like greenish searchlights on the northern horizon.
Someday, a trip to the Yukon . . . .
Oh the stories we could share - Driving the younger one out to Cali to spend the summer internship with his older brother in LA - Stopped at the North Rim on June the 6th for a 6 am Snow Storm and he took a couple hundred pictures before he asked how much film I had put in the Camera - Snow was melting away before he realized HE had not loaded the Camera!!!!!!!!!!! Still have those photos in My Minds Eye as none made it onto the Film.
Oh the fun we had.
