Very BUSY day today ....

... very busy day & evening too ...

... after feeding the dogs this morning we got to work trying to get the sno-go's running.  We needed gas for them so I headed out to take trash to the dump, get gas and while I was out I got us 30 gallons of fuel oil too!  After I got back, we got both of the sno-go's running and were very hopeful that the big one would now work as well as it did last year!!  No luck.  After just a few trips around the driveway it died again! The little one started running better though!  So, I took it out and around the 3.5 mile loop!  It was still running good so we hooked up a pallet behind it to drag the trails.  It worked like a charm!  Yay!

Then, just as I was getting dinner ready, Lynn Orbison showed up to groom some doggy tails ... We ate dinner and then Zena was the first grooming table victim.  She was completed in no time flat.  Then, Shammu came in .... she was finished just as we were getting ready to head out to run two teams!!  So, Lynn went with us on the run!  Front team was run by Tom & Lynn with double sleds.  I followed with a 4 dog team!

Front team:
Jasper & Sherman
Shelby & Rallie
Kako
Gus
Hannah & Muktuk

Follow team:
Panzer & Patton
Shammu & Yeti

What a great night for a run!  It was 18 degrees and the trails were nice!  The teams did great and we had very few issues.  Still need lots of leader work done but they are actually moving down the trail again without stopping for every little thing!

After we got back, we cleaned pens and Lynn took a Stubby girl in for some much needed grooming!

It's coming up on 11 pm and I am exhausted.  But, I should get dishes done so I am not faced with the project of doing dishes before leaving on "Operation Puppy" super early tomorrow morning!  I am hopeful that I will actually be able to move tomorrow and be able to ride along!

Happy Trails!
