| Lol, so I ended up going with this one considering the Iditarod begins in March. I'm sure some of you guys will have some great photos. Chat away! |

| How fun! Too bad I'm usually the only one who is mushing AND can operate the camera. Lol. Looking forward to some fun photos though! _________________ |

| Ahhh I got a mushing demo in March but will not have pictures in time. Guess I will use one from last time. Got a couple so I have to decide which one. Might have to come here and post to make the final decision if I get indecisive. |

| Great theme! If our meetup this coming Sunday isn't canceled, I might have a pic to submit this time. |

| Great theme for HOTM.
Usually Bodhi and I skijor in winter. Unfortunately, the west coast is not having winter this year. We had snow and cold early in December, but since then- nothing. There are eight Sno-tel sites on Mt. Hood. Only two of them are measuring any snow today.
Last weekend, I was skiing in Utah. Conditions were not good due to lack of snow and warmth. One day on the lifts, I met a man from Holland who was attending a conference in Salt Lake. He told me in Holland the canals had not frozen this year. Nobody could skate, which is the Dutch national pastime.
Alaska has so little snow that the Iditarod start will be in Fairbanks, not Willow (near Anchorage) this year.
I'm hoping this year is just an aberrant, but worried it's a sign of things to come. |

| I listened to an NPR report (I think it was on "Marketplace") a couple weeks ago that talked about this very topic: the growing effects of climate change on dogsledding, especially in Alaska, where it's such a huge tourist draw each year.
That said, we on the East Coast have gotten more than our share of winter. We're happy to share with anyone who's lacking it!
We're supposed to get a "wintry mix" this Sunday for our sledding/snowshoeing Boston Snow Dogs meetup. The meetup was rescheduled from last Sunday due to bad weather and poor trail conditions. I'm crossing my fingers that we don't have the same issue this Sunday! I really want to have a good pic to submit! |

| Crap, our meetup tomorrow has been canceled. No sledding pics for me. I'm loving the ones posted so far, though. Lucy, I think you picked the perfect one out of the ones you posted to Okami's scrapbook! I love the look of happiness on both Okami's and your daughter's faces. Koda made me laugh, too. Either he was possessed or he's just having the time of his life! |

| Ha! Koda's face is one of the best derp faces I've seen!
Okami's pic is so pretty, and I love that your daughter is smiling too. It's adorable! |

| Here is my conundrum would an instagram picture transfer over well or would that be to low of quality? It is only 79Kbs so I am thinking the quality might be low even though it looks good when I save it.
