Here's my good friend Kathy. She doesn't think she has any dogs of her own at the moment, but I don't think these dogs would agree. They totally love her and she them. Several of us really depend on Kathy (or fight over her) to help us out with our teams and she is always a pleasure to be with and a big help out on the trail. So, Thanks Kathy, I really appreciate you, our friendship and your love of dogs.

Here she is with Beluga and Salty, behind is Remy and Churrie's ear and in wheel 2spot and Uno. Uno is a dog that I really love, he's a great worker and he also is strikingly handsome, son of Remy, so you can see where he gets his looks.

Salty, Remy and Uno belong to our friend Keith (although I have a dog named Salty too, of course).

IPad movie.
It's been an amazing spring for running dogs here. On each of our last four runs I've thought "this is the last run of the season." Today we ran again with temps in the mid twenties and light cloudcover. It was a bit warm for the dogs, but the trails were hard and fast. April 28, 2013.

This video features Kathy's team with my Pepsi and her Remi in lead, and Mr. Frodo running loose. The video part of my Canon is still broken, so for our last run I took out the IPad and pretty much shot this blind, the quality is pretty poor and I have no way to edit, but oh well, the feeling is there.

Remi and Frodo are both twelve year olds, so this may be the last full season for them, such good dogs.

Just another shot from the back of the sled. Brownie and Remi; Salty and Uno.

It appears our season is coming to a close. Hopefully we'll have a few more runs, but spring seems inevitable.
