Hint for those who may be bored and "studying" for the trivia quiz. It might be helpful to know names of some famous dogs and facts about women mushers. See you in chat!

Wonderful photos, Alaska61. Your mountains make mine look a little bit puny. Congratulations for landing in such a beautiful place.

Chat was a lot of fun today. The trivia was won by northwapiti aka Karen, with a score of 6, libby the lab with 2, mira and moose with one each. JeanieB and I had fun asking the questions. We kept the questions to ten total so it wouldn't be so late on the other side of the pond. Even so it was just after mid-night for mira.

We, the Iditabuds gathered in chat today, have decided to meet every week while we are in lock down or sheltering in place, for the covid-19 abomination. You are very welcome to join us, we will use the same time as chat is now, so whatever time you come to regular chat is the time for you to come to this chat. Starts at 12noon Alaska time. No trivia as of now for this chat, will be for monthly however.

Speaking of trivia for the month of April, who would like to host it?

You were missed, but we had fun anyway! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Anyone up for meeting at the BB&Grill last Sunday, which is this coming Sunday February 28? I will try to remember to be there, hope a few 'buds can make it too. The times are listed in title of this thread. My time EST is 4pm. I wish mira's and tangle's weren't so late.

This should take you to the chat room...
