btw

realized it has been almost a year since my first post.


i'm feeling cheated that time has moved so fast, and feel relieved that i am in such a different space....that space is ALASKA!!!! viva el iditarod!!!

Alaska like you've never seen it.

I've done it.

I am in Alaska for the Iditarod. Yes, the Iditarod. THE 1100+ mile sled dog race across the Alaskan tundra. Working with the best. New friends, awesome dogs...just had dinner with last year's champion Robert Sorlie and the potential champion of this year: his nephew Bjorner (I need to learn to spell his name). It's fairly warm, at least now in Anchorage, and I'm still marvelling that I am here. HERE. This is an adventure and a roller coaster and I am waiting for the ride. So cool. So fucking cool. One of my favorite moments in my life so far. Interesting fact I learned yesterday: did you know that more people have climbed Mt. Everest than have finished the Iditarod??? Yeah, me neither. I'll make it as far as Skewntna and then real work calls...ah, to love and have loved before.

I love Alaska. I love the frontier. God forbid my life ever stops holding adventure.
