Doggone Good Time

Today was the ladies turn to race. Not sure the name of the race or the distance, but I assume it was around 16 miles, the 2nd day of a 2 day event. There were only three mushers. It was a beautiful sunny day. The temperature was about -15F with a northwest wind at 9mph.

Bye bye Auntie Allie.

They took off like a shot. Hang on Margaret!
