My friend-since-first-grade, Lois Brown Horne, has always been known to be curious and interested in MANY things. She taught home-ec at Buffalo Gap High School for 20 years. She then went back to James Madison University and became a licensed psychologist, another field in which she has been quite successful.
One of her interests is the Iditarod Dog Sled races in Alaska. She is a junkie and can tell you all about the mushers and their dogs - and her predictions.
"...When I blogged my 2008 trip, I thought it was a once in a lifetime experience. However, rather than 'scratch an itch', that trip only 'fueled the fire' that has, maybe, become an addiction. People (friends now) in the mushing community warned me, but instead of heeding the warning, my sense of adventure was fed by those warnings....."
The post for yesterday is most amazing and I dare say you don't have too many friends who have done this. Click here: Magnificent Mushing Madventure (Chapter 1)
I'll definitely have to read Lois' blog. Thanks so much for posting about it!
