Biography
Mushing is something I never expected to do-it was my wife’s hobby before we married, and I gave it a try once just for fun. Of course, I was hooked. I say all the time that getting on a sled behind a team of dogs for the first time makes adults into children, and to this day l find that joy and exhilaration irresistible. In the past seven or eight years, I’ve been transported by dog team to so many gorgeous places and wonderful communities that I can no longer imagine how I’d be me without the experiences these dogs have given me. Our dogs are courageous and strong, smart, curious, and fun as all get out. I can only hope that some of what they have rubs off on me.
