I was fortunate to see the first auroras of the season last night. Although the sky does not get pitch black at this time of the year, the auroras were strong enough to lite up the sky. These are some photos taken outside the house where I live.

Blueberries seem to be everywhere at the moment. Yiming & I went to pick some in a bog by Chena Hot Springs Road. In less than half an hour we picked about 2 pounds. Normally, Alaska has swarms of mosquitoes but not this year as we went through a cold period in late July and early August. Fortunately, the weather has become nicer again and we can now enjoy the few remaining weeks of summer.
