Checking In

Hello everyone! Happy New Year! I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable holiday break. I did. But now I am gearing up (both figuratively and literally) for my journey in Alaska. I'm starting to put together my winter educator's conference presentation and my Alaska school presentations. Also, I'm checking that I have all my gear and layers. I think I'm almost there! Luckily, I'll have a few days once I arrive in AK to have the "pros" look over my stuff and give me advice on what to take, leave behind, or get! :)

I can't believe this part of the Teacher on the Trail job is almost here. It seems like just a few weeks ago when I was with you all as a very NEW teacher on the trail.

I hope after my trip that I will be able to find ways to remain very involved in the Iditarod Education Department and work for the Iditarod. I can't imagine it not being part of my life.

I'd like to hear how you all are and what you are up to.

Wag more, bark less,
Jane
