Moose thanks!

Not likely to be able to make it again so I will absolutely enjoy for all of us :D

Great to know we'll see you here more this time. As long as I can get internet access I'll be posting. I'm staying at Lakefront so should be okay for internet. It also means easy access to comms room . . . where I will be working.

I am now . . . . wait for it ..... drum roll ... an official Iditarod volunteer :D :D :D

Got all my shifts arranged. Can't wait!

I was just thinking about it yesterday (abt going, not volunteering). A little apprehensive about booking a flight, in case....Fairbanks again,.. Been thinking about going for years now and just never pulled the proverbial trigger. Maybe '18,...

Hey thanks Moose!

It's all getting a bit silly now - so I thought I'd share with you all just how silly ..... starting my days with singing along to Hobo Jim's Iditarod song. Yes, really. So I sit with coffee, click on the link below and . . . . sing along. Perfect way to start the day!

I know the furthest I'll travel is from my hotel room to the comms room, (after the small matter of getting from UK to Anchorage) but the whole thing is just magical. :D :D :D
