Time flies..... we must be having fun!

Wow... it has been a while, so much for posting more often. We've been so busy here getting ready for winter that I haven't had time for much else. But we have accomplished so much.....

The new dog truck is almost ready to be put into use. All we have left to do is hoist the box onto the flatbed and we're good to go! We will be busy this week filling in the many complicated excavations the dogs worked so hard to create this summer.... and building new floors in the barn for the horses. I'm sure they'll love that this winter, but even more so this spring when everything melts. No more mud! YEAH!

This will be a fun and exciting mushing season. We will be the support crew for our dear friend Wayne Hall while he runs the Yukon Quest International Sleddog Race. It'll be fun to use the new truck for this race. And, we'll have a great crew, which will come in handy during the race, but especially for the Dawson City Layover... or I should say, for setting up camp for the Dawson City Layover. The more hands the better when doing labor... don't you think?

Well, back to hard labor..... until next time I check off enough from my "to do" list.... enjoy the fall weather, fresh crisp air, and soon to be arriving...... snow!!! Doing the snow dance!
