Ari was born to pull sleds!

Today was the Kiddi Mutt Race, part of the UP200 festivities, at the Downtown Commons. Maggie, an acquaintance of Hayley's, needed a dog for the race, so we let her use Arianna.

A winch, not wench. (Hate those typos.)
Used to haul boats in from the harbor, I think.

Getting Ready for the UP200 Sled Dog Race

After dropping off my photos at the Oasis Gallery, I decided to wander along Washington Street to take some photos of the race preparations taking place downtown.


WLUC-TV6 is also getting ready to cover the race.
