This morning at the checkpoint, Melted Snowball and me got to ride in the back of the truck with the dropped dogs to take them to the air port. The point of riding with them in the back of the truck was to comfort them. After we were done with that we raked up a whole bunch of straw that was used and couldn't be used by any other dogs because they didn't want any of the other dogs to get sick or something if the dog that was laying on the straw was sick. After we were done with that we got to meet Lance Mackey's step son try to leave the check point. It didn't work out so well so he decided to do his 24 hour layover because his dogs needed more sleep. While he was putting dog booties on his dogs I got his autograph. He signed my hat.
We also did bead work. We made keychains with flowers on them. They are really detailed and they look really good. We worked for at least an hour and a half. And we still aren't finished with them yet. We still have to sew the keychain ring on them. And I think that a lot of people will do an outline on the edge with the beads. That is pretty much all we did today at the check point besides watch all the mushers come and go.
