This week has gone to the dogs


Last weekend it was the start of the Anchorage Fur Rendezvous. There's everything to do from ice bowling to the World Championship Sled Dog Races.

This weekend it's Iditarod XXXV. 1049 miles from Anchorage to Nome. Men and women from around the world competing in the longest sled dog race. Click on link for daily updates.

The picture at left was borrowed from alaska.net. It was taken two blocks from my house.

By coincidence, this weekend was also the DC Idiotarod, something that is probably best avoided.

I would love to run the Iditarod. Mush, little puppies! MUSH!
