    Well, now I have a new benchmark for the BEST video of the northern lights I've ever seen. Astounding!! And thanks for the great explanation of what causes them. You even found a clip of them from a satellite, which just demonstrates why you consistently receive well-deserved rave reviews. Thank you!! I'm interested in seeing where these wonderful productions will take you in your future career.

I hate that we missed your class on purchasing an RV. We are hoping to purchase an RV in the next year and start our retirement journey. I was wondering if you were going to produce some kind of step by step , stop by stop history of your trip with dates that you were there along with costs of excursions that you experienced and a day by day map of your trip. I found myself longing for the kind of trip that you two experienced. Thank you so much for sharing your adventure with us. You two are awesome!

Angie and I are headed there to be Camphosts from May 17- July 11. They didn't mention to us we would have to take care of canoes and life vests when we had our phone interview for the position a few months ago. It was really neat to see where we will be spending 8 weeks in a couple months. Thanks so much for everything you do!!! Safe Travels and hopefully someday our paths will cross. Sean & Angie Marshall

Maybe we will get the chance to drive #THUNDERCAT all the way up there and take a few weeks to explore the area.
    My big question I have for you two is: What was it like stepping back into your home after so many months away exploring? What were thoes mixed feelings? Haha- Are you going to downsize? I hope not!!! haha.. Happy New Year. Sorry I couldn't make it out to Palm Springs for The RVers watch party.. But we will be out in La Posa North in a couple of weeks!

    First I just want to say what an incredible video this was, all highlights of the trip were captured in Spectacular quality footage and I learned a lot about the upcoming trip I'm planning for the North. However, a big led down, is no where in this video does the crew or narrator mention the date and time of the trip, this is vital information for trip goers to plan a visit of their own. I had to go into their blog, go through the whole story again in writing, then find it in the comments section when it was an answer to a comment left by someone else. I won't let the rest of the viewers go through this pain, but the trip was around September 8th 2019. Please o Please going forward make sure to mention the month and date of the year you are visiting a place. THIS IS KEY. thanks!

There's a YOU TUBER Family " Somers in Alaska" that live in North Pole , Alaska they are Jessica & Bert & their children Audrey , Evelyn & Garrett aka buddy . I'm subscribed to them .

      On video Low frame rate (2 per sec) long shutter... Or you could do a timelapse, with long shutter camera.. need a fast lens too. (This was on a f1.2 lens) wide lens would be best. Our setup was not great, and took heavy post processing, but it still came out ok.
