Well, I am happy today that Lance won his third Iditarod in a row....under extreme conditions. He is just amazing, and I am so happy for Tonya and his family. He gets another big shiny new Dodge, and some money for dog food and bills. Lance always steps up and works his ass off, which is a great message to some of todays youth who seem to feel everything should be given to them. We are thinking of Dr. Tim too, who is still out on the trail, and probably will be until Sunday. 2 weeks of running dogs....wow! What a life!
Tara and I are going to Farwell (Lost lake) this weekend to camp and train dogs. It is a girls weekend, and I am SO up for that! Gonna cram 4-5 dogs into my pathfinder, and everything else we need...Tara has kindly offered to let me sleep in Dean's famous tent-cot, and will be bringing the water and a campstove. Our friend, Martha (another Seppala lover) is coming on Saturday. Unfortunately, Jill has a commitment and won't be able to come over, but we will have another girls weekend with the dogs again soon, if all goes well this time. (Even if it doesn't!)
I have to see how much I can load into the PF, and plan to travel as light as possible...which for me will be hard. Always like to have what we "might" need handy...but will try to control that urge! Better get packing!

I didn't know you were doing that this weekend! Have a good time and say "hi" to Tara for me! I love you!
And I'm very excited for Lance. He is an inspiration for people who think they can't do difficult things for sure.
