What a great awards party !!!!!!!!!!

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

I really intended to join a bit in the start, but I kind of fell a sleep in front of the computer... so I went to bed instead.

Glad you had fun (knew you would :) ) and good that aren was there representing the norwegians :D

Hi guys, nice to hear you had a splendid time. I had to sleep since I was up really early today. Next time maybe...

...and the Rocket is out of China Open... what a shame.

It was a hoot of a bash!

You could have knocked me over with a purple umbrella when Frank arrived. OMG , that was icing on the cake!!!!!!!! Somehowl or other, I don't think his arrival was accidental :) and I KNOW Frank is happy that we have a new home, delighted that we are carrying the best of his expectations forward. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm John, are you holding close to the vest?

I wish I had saved a transcript of the chat. Fast forward reading and typing were required.

I know I missed the very end, but the eyes and fingers gave up the chase.

Thank you all, AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I'm the one who invited Frank to the Awards Party. Frank is an internet buddy of mine. I've never met him, and probably never will, but I like his insights and comments. I first started emailing him about 5 (??) years ago, when there was a lunatic who went crazy one day on the Cabela's Talk Forums. Mith and I teamed up and helped Frank get him off the Talk Forums. (Mith - you remember that??). I convinced Frank to come to the Party, as I knew he didn't realize how much we have appreciated him over the years. I think he'll stay in touch will all of us.

StarDancer,

Thank you. Immensely.

I hope Frank keeps in touch, I consider him one of the Breaker Tribe.

Hey Frank... We'll accept a good Harley story - perhaps one about Daytona Bike Week.. It's good to hear about you being at the party. ...Dave

yippee, great party, which, of course, I MISSED!!!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

Oh well, someday I'll get myself into the right time zone (or the right universe, maybe). Meanwhile, it's nice to see everyone here! I finally got my postcard and package together today, so I'm not totally out of it! :roll:
