I’ve been following the Iron Dog as well as I can. Today, they’ll get to Fairbanks. Currently, the teams are being held in Tanana with a restart at 1100 CST (that is 0800 Alaska time). This so the winners will cross the finish line in around noon their time. I think.
You can watch the finish at the irondog.org web site.
Thanks for the ping. PTL your MIL is doing better. Our pastor’s mother was hovering between the two worlds (nice turn of phrase by the way) a year ago October. The doctors thought her death so imminent that the family kept a death vigil. About a week into it, the mother woke up and asked for breakfast; she’s been going great guns since.
