Mushing Widow

I know most of you have heard of hunting widows but at our house it is mushing season and kayak season. Bryan is taking very opportunity to run dogs when the weather is cold. (I don't blame him)

I have been entertaining myself with my sled dog race addiction. Some people can talk about NASCAR or football. Not me, I talk about mushers. I am currently monitoring the Yukon Quest. It is an amazing 1,000 mile race from Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Canada to Fairbanks, AK. Unlike the Iditarod there are few teams entered, less checkpoints, and more big climbs. I enjoy listen to the updates at KUAC. This weekend is the UP200. Our friends in Michagan will participate.

Sick!

Sorry I haven't posted for weeks. I got really sick and was out stuck at home for two weeks. Stratus and Kim were here, too. We thought Stratus had the same stuff I did but now we are not sure. He is going to have some more test. Lucky him. Lucy and Walla went on the road with Bryan while I was sick. I heard Kim grumbling about always being stuck at home with the sick dogs. How does she think we feel?

This last week Bryan went to a big meeting in Dallas, TX. He won a Circle of Excellence award. We are very proud of him.

Hopefully things get more fun around here soon.
