Another Iditarod picture,
…and another:
When I heard Greyfox oohing over today’s Anchorage Daily News, I asked him what was so cute about the paper. He described this shot and I went to adn.com to find the picture (much clearer in the digital image on my monitor than in print on paper). I decided to share it. There is a big gallery of images there from this year’s race, too. Go see for yourself.
Packed up and ready to go to Nome, Jeff King waits out his final fifteen minutes of layover time snuggled up to wheel dog “Houston” just before midnight Wednesday in White Mountain. King finished third on Thursday in 9 days, 23 hours and 17 minutes to win $51,429.

Then I found this shot of Sorlie in Nome: Time to celebrate.

It was fun to follow along with you on this. Thanks, SuSu
I really like the top picture.
Thanks for sharing this event with us. I never would have known anything about it otherwise.
Hey SuSu,
Thanks for your warm welcome on my site: very kind of you! And I’m reading with fascination about this race up in your neck of the woods. Alaska sounds like a really fun place to live and to play: that’s one place I’ve always wanted to visit!
You’ve done a great job with your site here: super pictures and nice stories! I shall look in here again, as I will add your name to the list of sites I’m subscribing to.
Have a super weekend!!
awwwwwww
wow. Sitting here in temperatures around the 100s, it’s hard to imagine…
I love the first picture.
Kudos on a wonderful reporting job!
This is good. Thanks for sharing.
okay….that’s the sweetest pic. a boy and his dog. (yes, i know it’s not a boy but it’s the sentiment…)
Looks like it was more than a one dog night though.
