Made my first run into Manley tonight, and had a great run. The moon is amazing right now, it is extremely bright. I was able to do most of the 75 mile run with no headlight. Made a quick stop in at the Redingtons and let them know I would be by tomorrow to camp the dogs and visit for a few hours. Its always a good time sitting around the table talking dogs with Joee and the crew!! It been busy around here as of late, some friends Cody and Paige came out yesterday with their 34 dogs to get away from town and enjoy the great trail conditions weve got out here. Cody is a Sled builder and built the sleds that I will be driving this year. I just got one a couple weeks ago and am loving it, cant wait to test it out on the race trail. His company name is Dog Paddle Designs. Check out his site he makes alot of great sleds and has one for every need. his link is on my links page. Stay tuned for more on Dog Paddle Design Sleds. Pups are doing great, getting better everyday. I have tried everyone in lead at this point and they have all done well, cant have enough leaders. I gotta get to bed. Heres a look at our newest additions to the kennel these guys are growing like weeds!!
