Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, and Dorothy Lamour never filmed The Road to Fairbanks. Was this because they had cush gigs in sunny Southern California during the golden years of Hollywood, and only left home for travel to exotic locales like Rio, Bali, and Utopia? Who knows? Maybe if they had known the forecast was for clear weather and high aurora activity they too would have made the northward trek, as I did this last weekend. Anyway, here are some pics from the trip. (As always, click the pic to embiggen.)
