Monday, September 25th
Monday morning Tara woke up before me and went
in to take a shower. I told her I would be in soon. The cabin
has a bolt lock on the inside and outside of the door.
I grabbed my clothes and went to leave the cabin but when I went
to open the door it did not open. Tara had locked me in from
the outside! I figured it wouldn't be long that she would
come to let me out. After about 15 minutes I started to think
of ways out of the cabin as I really had to pee!! I checked the
windows but they didn't open. Then I remembered I had Karen and
Marks phone number in my suit case so I grabbed my cell phone
and tried to call the house. I knew they were going to get
a good kick out of this! I dialed the number but it was
restricted area. So I called my house in New Hampshire hoping I
would get a signal. My mom answered the phone and I told her
to email Tara as every morning Tara checked her email. I told
my mom to write her and tell her to let me out of the cabin.
Within 10 minutes I heard Tara coming towards the cabin
laughing. Ok, so it was pretty funny!! LOL! Karen and Mark
both laughing in the house and Karen said "What did you do, call
home?" Once we stopped laughing it was time for breakfast.
Today was a day to pack up and get ready for the trip home.
This included a trip to the vets to get health certificates on
Tara's new pup Sukih, Gail's new puppy Billie and Rob & Louise
Cooke's new pup Banjo. They didn't make a peep going to the
vet, what good kids! That night I was a little sad I was
leaving tomorrow. I had such a wonderful time with so many
great memories and what an incredible experience it was running
an Iditarod team with Karen!! She's truly an amazing person
with a big heart.

Tuesday we left the house at 6am. We had to
be at the airport by 8am so Billie and Banjo could make
their flight to their new homes. We had some time to kill
since our flight didn't leave until 1pm so we went to
Starbucks, the book store, Petco and to the park to walk
Sukih. Once we got to the airport we said our good byes and
Tara and I left for home. Overall it was an incredible
trip!! One I will always remember. Thank you so much Mark
and Karen for your wonder hospitality, great company,
excellent food and letting me have the privilege of running
your dogs for a few days.
