Can't believe I missed him! No more bathroom breaks. "Man of few words" - will get it when it goes to replay: ) Good for Ramey.

He didn't say a great deal... started to choke up almost immediately when he mentioned his dogs, and quickly shuffled off to avoid the invasion.


I think they said it was his 21st ID.

Awww. I wish I had a pile of money to throw his way. Seems like he's been short on mushing funds for(ever), making it perhaps harder for him to race than some others. I'm so glad to see him back up top.

Cute footage on Kale's FB live for Aaron - worth a watch. A's son, Hunter, is there, and someone's joking about Aaron helping Jessie H get to the start line.

Hah.. my oldest daughter and i have just watched Mats, Michelle og Lars coming into Nome. Michelle and Lars really had a race in the race, my daughter were a bit disappointed that Lars lost. Lars dogs looked like the ready for one more leg..

They sure did! Now to go back and watch all the ones that came in while I was asleep. So glad Kale is there - though I guess he leaves today.

Here is Aliy's arrival thanks to Kale Casey
https://www.facebook.com/kalecaseylive/ ... 817391033/

Just before the 20min mark she get a bunch of kids to do a group howl. you can hear more howls after they finish, wonder if the dog yard was joining in?
Love how friendly she is to everyone, letting lots of selfies be taken by kiddos and adults. The crowd showed their love for Aliy and Aliy shows it back. Allen was there
A voice from the crowd cheered him as Quest winner and as 3X Quest winner.

She is the absolute best! The dogs look fantastic. Good on SPK! Poor Allen looked like whatever bug got him got him bad and still lingers. Wishing him well. . .and wishing them both a fantastic year until Iditarod 2019! Whoot, whoot!
