Hi Boys and Girls

Good Evening.  Well the race is winding down.  There are 4 teams out on the trail.  Cindy Gallea has passed through Safety and should be in Nome soon.  The last three teams are in White Mountain taking their 8 hour mandatory rest.  Bob Chlupack made up some time and is only 8 minutes behind Christine Roalofs.  I wonder who the Red Lantern Winner will be.  We should know by morning.

Todays picture by Jeff Schultz is of Mikhail Telpin in the chute in Nome this morning.

Now for todays update:
