A Walk in the Woods

This afternoon we took Amber & Goose out with us. Look at how excited Goose was to be there!

Peanut Posing for a Portrait

Someone else likes to soak in the sun as much as I do!

Meeting in the Middle

So not helpful...

Oh Scott

Scott, on the other hand, thoroughly enjoyed his spa treatment!

Oh Yuke

Yukon needed a bath. Can't you see his enthusiasm?!

Learning a New Skill

Grampa was more than pleased to take on another student!

The end of a successful season!

This evening's award ceremony was the bittersweet end of Nordic Season. It's hard to believe it's over all ready. He earned a KVAC Academic Award, and the Coach's Award. I'm so proud of him for all of his efforts! 

It will melt eventually...

This is such a bad idea...

Maple BBQ Burger

Perhaps the best ever? Homemade sourdough bun with caramelized onions, bacon and maple bbq sauce on a huge perfectly cooked burger. Yummo! (and plenty for 2 to share) We discovered these during a 'pit stop' at Hoagie's in Newport, Vermont. It was so good that we stopped there again last night on our way South...

Day 2 at Valcartier!!

She flew around the course with our 6 Dog Class entry: Shark & Sparkles, Bull & Dara, and Ice & Spice. Go team!

They're off!!

This weekend we are racing in Valcartier, Quebec. This morning he's headed out with our Open Class entry which consists of: Cenz & Frank, Sugar & Lucky, Clover & Abby, Dunkin & Donut, Chloe & Honey, and Stretch & Rupp.

Family Portrait

Bull with his mom - Gotham, and dad - Shark.

There is lots of maple sap this year!

Bringing it in the hard way...but it's so worth the effort!

As Predicted

We're sure glad that big brother is home from college on 'Spring' Break. I have a feeling he'll be booking a trip to the tropics next year though!

'And the Happiest Dog Award goes to...'

Another big storm is brewing...

...so I'm afraid she's gonna be there awhile!

Biathlon

They raced in a biathlon at Roberts Farm today, and had a great time competing again. They worked hard, and each won their age group! But guess who was 6 seconds faster? 😉

Youthful Exuberance

I was walking back to the atv after visiting the team while they were taking a break. Apparently Abby was really anxious to get going again!!

My Motivator

I didn't feel like running today but she really really wanted to go, so...

Winter has returned!

Happy birthday Rusty

Family Time

There were so many great moments this weekend, but my favorite part was us all being together!

Skijor races at the Fort Kent Outdoor Center

He was so happy to be racing again! And Shark did great, even if the distance was more than he was used to.

Trottinette (or kick sled race)

She hooked up Bull & Cenz and they flew!!

Tough conditions at the EHSC Selection Race today!

The trail was melting out from under them as they skied, but they persevered anyway!

Better late than never!

Our team jackets are ready for the Can-Am Crown International Sled Dog Race!

A great big thank you Perfect Stitch Embroidery, Screenprinting & Promotions! The Nooksack Racing Supply logo looks awesome, and we appreciate you rushing the job so that we can sport our jackets in Fort Kent this weekend. And thank you Regan for arranging for the DESDC team jackets in the first place. We're very happy with them!
