What about the dogs?
The dogs like to run. The race that I couldnt remember the name of is the Idideron... or something like that. After this run, and the other run, someone qualifies for it. Today I went back to the Carnival for to watch some events. And watch I did. Saw some motocross on the ice and some snowcross on the snow. Saw native handgames and got much snow in my boots. It was a bit colder today so not much meltwater to contend with.
Its actually a pretty cheesy event. But something to do. Tomorrow there is an ugly truck competition. I have high hopes for it. In any event here are some pictures from today.

Ha ha, I read this and immediately thought of Ricky from Trailer Park Boys.

Hey Ben, the dogsled race you're trying to spell (let alone refer) is the Iditarod: http://www.iditarod.com/
In a nutshell, it's a race from Anchorage NW to Nome, and it has quite a history. It became legendary especially for being the lifeline for diptheria-stricken citizens of Nome in 1925.

I'm not sure if you know this but a polar bear can smell you from 23 miles away, They are also the only animal in Canada that will hunt humans for food. watch your back at the carnival.

Are you implying that I smell?
Polar bears are coastal animals... i'm waaaaay inland. Thats why its the 'caribou carnival' and not the 'polar bears eating people carnival'... as near as i can tell.
We do get grizzly bears in town I hear. And ive been advised to carry bear mace when I bike trails in the summer.

You do kinda smell...perhaps it's a polar bear aphrodesiac you're wearing. You really should shower sometime before you get molested by a large white bear that's travelled thousands of kilometres to be with you.

Every good line I wanted to use has been used. Shoot.
