We've been reading books about the Iditarod with our kiddos and just began watching a movie about it tonight. At bedtime, my 5 year old daughter asked, "Mommy, how many more years till I can be in the junior Iditarod?" Ummmmmmmmmmm. . .

What a wonderful thing it is to dream, aspire and be 5 years old :-)

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.

I have done a lot of things that I was told not to even try. I was the first female to finish Automotive vo-tech in my high school. My dad is a contractor and I worked with for years.

It's all good!

Several years ago I lived in Alaska and helped sponsor an Iditarod team. We watched the start of the race and I believe two women started that year and one won. If you can dream it you can do it.

Very cool Beth. Was that Libby Riddles that won that year? We just finished a book about her. . .
