Just FYI:
The last musher KACI MURRINGER is still on the trail--about an hour out so I'll see if I can get a photo.
One of the ELIM 11 wrote on our chat page talking about their "adventure"!~!!!
"It has been a long tough trail up and down mountains across tundra and swamps and mud and slush but there was no real rush. The shelter we 11 came to stay at was ample enough for all of us in those dreary days. Then suddenly MARTIN BUSER got up and went to his sled, harnessed up all his puppies (he has a very young team--not his usual) and they were at the ready as all stood yapping and barking and singing a song that dog teams have been known for so very long. With his eternal twinkle in his eyes each sled got inspected and then with a shout he explained " "Follow me gang!
I'll get you all home, but I think it best if we stop first on Front St. in NOME!!"
THAT HE DID or is doing!!
He waited under the arch in NOME for all 10 behind him to welcome them. Just one left. He's waiting. So are we.
