On Sunday, March 2, we boarded a school bus to ride 2 1/2 hours to Willow for the official start of the Idiatrod. How fitting was it that 6 teachers were riding a school bus! How did we keep ourselves busy? We played cards. Once we arrived, we looked for a good spot to take video and pictures. We decided to go far out from the start point, past the orange fencing, out into the open, where the teams would come down a small hill. Ms. Holstien found this perfect spot for us. Later I wandered back towards the start line, stopping along the way to take more video and pictures. Today the dogs were excited and wanted to get going. It was a thrill to see this event in person! Question for you: Do you know how many Iditarod's there have been?
