    Cindy really needs everyones help at the moment.

    She needs some donations of any amount to help her feed the dogs and also to enable her to purchase some high powered battery that will help with light so that she can see.

    You can visit her website www.reachingbeyondtheclouds.com if you can spare a couple of dollars


    I wish Cindy safe travels

    Thanks for the link, Michelle. What a beautifully designed new website!
    Nice pictures of the dogs, wow.

    I couldn't find a bank-account number though.
    Where can I make a donation for dogfood?

    Under the Iditarod link there is a link for donate but I only see info on how to donate through pay pal.

    Wow, Cindy is a true inspiration. A person with Wegener's accomplishing those things at such high altitudes and low temperatures... truly amazing. Do check out the link to her great website and all the photos there.

    I guess the race starts this weekend. I believe the way it works is that they will have a ceremonial start in Anchorage on Saturday, then move the teams to Willow for the real start Sunday, but not real certain of that. Sure wish I could be up there for it, but I have a hard enough time just going to the store or mailbox.
