We are hoping the weather warms up a bit for the CB 300 but it is still 40 below there. Glen Allen is a cold place to start with. Also there is some stomach sickness going around in the yard, even Jesus is not eating and he is a complete swine. However, so far Newton and Hans's dogs are looking fine. They are giving the dogs 'metronitozol' or something like that just in case. We did the food drops last night and all went well other than Goose shit on the floor after eating a lot of scraps. I cooked the human meals and they packed snacks and clothes, matches etc. Lisa and Newton did all the dog food and booties during the day and Hans had already cut all the dog snacks which Newton and Lisa then packed into 14 snack portions. There is a LOT of food packed into small bags waiting to go into the truck. I'll get Lisa to take a picture. It's like 1/3rd of the Quest so I guess ya, it would be a lot of food.
Keep your fingers crossed for Newton!
It's going to be a tough race.
