Sled Accident

I had my first real accident on a sled... I can't really give the details due to the fact that I don't remember. I was able to guess what happened from what my face looks like and what my head felt like. The sled that I was driving was very top heavy so it wasn't the most forgiving sled in the world and the trail was just as fun! The trail took a very sharp turn with a very steep drop... I think that I hit the brake too hard which sucked me into the trees and apparently I hit my head. I went to the hospital and was told that I had a bad concussion along with a hairline fracture of my eye socket. So I have been taking it easy. But keep looking back here as I will be posting more soon!!

Work Update

I am back in the awesomely amazing state of Alaska!!! Its been pretty cold here. About -20 before windchill but its nice and fun!!! My mom got me a Parka and snow pants so I am staying nice and warm!! The Yukon Quest which is a 1000 mile race starts on Feb. 6th. Dries is my Belgian friend and he is running the race. I will be handling for him. It should be fun!! 16 days of driving and taking care of the dogs!!! WOOT!!! Its also supposed to be the coldest race of the season so that isn't going to be the fun part. Our internet has been down so service is sporadic.

Keep it real!!
