It's been 3 months since I came from fromt he Iditarod Sled Dog Race in Nome. I participated in a 6 day craft show. I've got to tell you, it was such an amzing experience and recommend it to anyone.
At the craft show, there were Eskimo carvers, carving ivory, and making the "Ruff" the fur trim that goes around the hood of a parka.
I ate Muskot sausage for breakfast, which was delish....
Now, of course when the siren rang, it meant another musher was about to cross the finish line. It was very exciting. Lance Mackey won again, third year in a row, and have my T-shirts, .....dirty dog and his wife has the ......alaskan Hussie one, for more info on these t-shirts check the web site.
The banqueet dinner at the end of the Iditarod was exciting, to hear Mushers' story's about their trials and tribulations as they made their way to Nome on this 1000 mile race. Some scratched, some were held back by blizzards, and many came in with frost bitten faces.
Thanks to Matt at Airport Pizza for letting me go around and sell my T-shirts during the beer tasting event. Which many were sold, from the woman who looked at a t-shirt and couldn't stop laughing to the point where she fell over still sitting in her chair and still laughing her head off.
From the great friends that I met, like Karen from Washington, who came to Nome to learn how to be a street walker, this was because the side walks on the side street was so narrow...........what were you thinking?
Go to Nome.............you just have to.
