Right now with the big race in progress, my heart and spirit are out on the Iditarod trail with several favorite mushers. These gals are special heroes to me and I'm soaking up as much of the atmosphere as I can by long distance and nearly glued to my computer. That's set on Iditarod.com where I have an ultimate insider subscription and can watch videos, read reports, see photos and even get a live stream now and then. Everything but the cold, which is not too severe so far this year. It is almost too warm for the sled dogs to do well, really. Thirty two is hot to them!
Once this is all over, I'll be back on the memoir essays and sharing some poems and other things so stick with me. Or you can pop over to gwynnmorgalaska.blogspot.com if you have any interest or curiosity about the sport of sled dog racing!
Here is a shot of my special favorite, Aliy Zirkle, with her team coming in to a checkpoint today. Yes, I borrowed it; I'm not that close, darn the luck! Aren't those handsome huskies?
