Couldn't Sleep

I tossed and turn last night. I kept on thinking of my two friends who's cats had died last month from kidney failure. The vet said they were sickly, the vet gave medicine, steroids, over night for more test. Nothing worked. Now we can only figure, coincident,I think not.
I kept thinking what if it was me feeding my pets "RAT POISON"
We go out of our way to feed them well. Give them a comfortable and warm place to sleep.
Take en for rides, take em on vacation, throw the ball and they chase it.Feed them and they eat knowing we will do them no harm.
I hear the low number of death from the RAT POISON, what about my friends cats?
What about all of the others that just had kidney failure?

OMG RAT POISON IN PET FOOD!!!!

How can this happen to our loved ones. They protect us, we must protect them!

Lance Mackey Racing Toward Historic Finish
— Chas St. George
Lance Mackey is on the run in “The Last Great Race to Nome.” Mackey is dashing toward the Burled Arch wearing bib #13. That number has a tremendous amount of significance for Lance.
“My Dad (Dick) and my brother (Rick) won this race in their sixth attempt wearing bib #13. This year marks my sixth Iditarod and I intend to wear bib #13,”
said Mackey. He went on to say,
“I believe I have the team and the ability. This year I am going to put it all together and the Come Back Kennel goal for 2007 is to make sure that there is a third Mackey on the list of Iditarod Champions. This is my year!”
The 36 year-old Mackey has already achieved greatness in the Yukon Quest — winning the last three years in a row.
Right behind Mackey is another musher who has Nome on his mind, Paul Gebhardt. Gebhardt and Mackey are from the same neighborhood — Kasilof, Alaska. Both mushers have great teams and they're stirring up a lot of excitement. Behind Mackey and Gebhardt are Martin Buser, Zack Steer, and Jeff King.
There’s still a lot of race left with a finish that could be one for the history books!!!

Kim Slade, Wells Fargo Teacher on the Trail™
From Trail Tidbits 15, March 11 — "I have had some unique culinary experiences this trip. I had moose stew at several villages in Athabascan country and now that I am on the coast with the Inupiaq, I have had Muktuk, which is raw whale, and beaver bacon. The Muktuk tasted like a chewy, very oily sushi (it would have been better with some wasabi). The beaver bacon had a strong taste and the texture of liver. The moose was similar to a beef boiled with vegetables and broth. All were pretty tasty, but my favorite was the moose stew! " Read more…

Trail Tidbits 14, March 10 — "Day 8 of the Iditarod - Sunny, winds 25-35 mph gusting 45 mph, 0°F. After leaving Anvik this morning, we flew to Grayling, the last village until Kaltag. There were several teams resting around the village. Because it was Saturday, many of the school kids were wondering around soaking in the sites. I shared some shells with several students and then made my way to the school where I met the PT (principal/teacher) Maryland Johnson." Read more.

We had our spotter Danny in the air and when he announced that not one, but two teams were heading our way, we got into position. The first team to pass by was Martin Buser, with Jeff King following close behind! WOW!! What a treat!! " Read more.

March 6 2007 Iditarod

Snowflake was born in the village of McGrath. A fine little village where you can leave your keys in the car, where you can find them. The people of the area are friendly and welcoming.
The school has 12 rooms, one for each grade. A grocery store. A gas pump and a couple of bunkhouses, not hotels. Takotna and Nikoli are near by.

More Iditarod

I think I have had a long day. The dogs have had a longer one. It is a fun time for all, the dogs, the people in the villages, the volunteers. Some of the mushers will travel through the night. Some will go to sleep. Thats what I am about to do. Enjoy!

Second day of Iditarod

Today Sunday is the second day of the great race,The Iditarod.
The first race took 2 weeks, now it may only take 9 days. Time goes by so fast even in the cold, before one know, the race will be over. I spend 7 years in McGrath and every year I would enjoy the race. Seeing new volunteers, but mainly the many return volunteers. I meet two woman one year, who came from California. They would leave their lives in California and each year go to the next Iditarod check point, starting of course in Anchorage. So in time they would have been to every check point.Started in Anchorage and end in Nome. What a vacation! Not sure what their jobs were, but at check the points there is always something to do.
Then there were the pilots who would volunteer their time and planes. To get up at 6:30 every morning to transport, dog sleds, dog and human food, hay, stoves, gear etc, to out lying areas. It was always a busy 3 weeks for them. Starting a week before the other volunteers.
