Gwen says often times, Little Bit, runs behind the team for miles when they are training. A volunteer veterinarian checks the legs and hips of one of rookie musher, Gwen Holdmann s dogs at the official vet check. Wednesday is also the day of the Press Meeting. This is where the Iditarod officials pass along information to the press regarding how to get about on the trail, what is going to happen, where there are phones and other information that helps the reporters do a better job. I told you about the three TOTT finalists for the 2002 Iditarod and today we were able to obtain a nice picture of them from our good friend, photographer Jeff Schultz.
Tomorrow night is the mushers banquet.
I am not going again because I checked the menu and there is no pizza anywhere on it. There is no pizza here at headquarters either. I guess I will have to find a pizza place while everyone is at the banquet Thursday night. I think I would like one of those ones with the extra cheese. I really like cheese.
