When we aren’t mushing our days are filled with other adventures. Still we get out with a team 2-3 times a day depending on our tour schedule. The dogs are always great and our guests equally excited to partake in Alaska’s state sport. These days the dogs are settled in and guests are often able help us hook up or unhook the team.
We’ve been having so much fun.
At night we let the dogs run loose in their new run pen. On hot days, the girls who have houses in full sun are put in their to beat the heat. Everyone gets along. Everyone has wagging tails. We laugh at the games the dogs play together. Tag and chase and digging, always digging, hole after hole after hole.
Travis and I fill the few holes in our time by hiking and biking and doing art so each day is always perfectly full, occasionally even spilling over.
We yearn for fall to come and bring with it the colder weather of winter.
We already crave snow and trails and night. But for now we rest and enjoy the last few weeks of summer. Perfectly content where we are.
