Itty-Bitty Sled Dog Pup

Puppy!

So, I spent five days in Alaska last week, visiting my grandparents and uncle and taking in the local culture. I had a few epiphanies during my trip:

1. Alaska is chilly (50-ish degrees was the high) in early September. And it rains. A lot.

2. Dogsledders are tough stuff.

3. Young sled dogs are so cute.

4. I don't like eating animals that have been shot (reindeer and caribou in particular).

I've posted photos from my journey. Enjoy!
