Auntie's visiting!

Emma-E and Auntie Lidia dance around the kitchen at a recent visit.
After this visit Emma has insisted I let her hair grow out long and curly.

Wolf Sighting In Uktousa Dogyard....

Got ya!
Beautiful BB wee pup called Wolf, comes to stay for a short while with us at Uktousa while Ms W needed time to nurture her beautiful human baby, Emma. Wolf brought much joy to our day and love to our hearts.

Wolf Meets Tiger...

.....Tiger-Lilly! I always like to introduce new dogs in a social, but safe manner. Lilly folds back her ears with joy and presses her beautiful body up against the chainlink for Wolf to sniff.

Evening sofa play!

Rosie adopted Wolf, it was woof love at first bite. They loved to roll around on the sofa snuggled up next to me. There was lots of teeth clacking.

UKbrook adventures takes us to Greenville, Maine

A long weekend for a very pregnant musher but Whatleigh was a trooper and handled the journey and the race as well as anybody else. With husband Terry at her side, the weekend was set to be a glorious finale to her mushing season. The people of Greenville were beautiful. We made some great friendships. A memorable weekend for the three of us..... well, 4 of us if we include baby Emma.

Not those damn power lines... again!!

So, my best friend, Ms W, is carrying her baby to be (Emma-Lizzie), so I'm hopeful.. we won't have to brave the power lines this winter, surely not! So, I foolishly promise that if we get a good snow storm and there is sufficient fresh, light fluffy snow on the ground...
I'll do it, I'll do those darn scary steep power lines again. Well, did I eat my words. Just a couple of days later.. it snowed, boy... did it snow!!!








Whatleigh being pregnant and in need of as much adventure as she can possibly squeeze in, her first email of the day promptly says .....
"So, are we doing power lines today?" I guess a promise is a promise. So we did. I had 8 fearless monsters and Ms W had 9 courageous, eager to run... power line eating maniacs. It seemed so tame at first, yeah, tame..... up and up, over and over the rollers, twisty turny, up and up, down and up and then there it was ... the horizon, the drop off, but wait... I see Ms W take a sharp left hand turn. "What the heck!" There was a new side cut kinda trail to the left, she took it!!! Damn it... it was fast, turny an oh, did I mention scary with 90 deg sharp sharp turns? Did I mention the TREE, yeah the one that is totally in the way??? Of course now the dogs are charging, hungry for more more more ... out of the woods we fly and down down down the never ending roller coaster of steepness. Baby EE must have been doing a jig and a half, I know my stomach was !!


Crazy musher gals.....
