Just a bit more...

polarbee has more pictures of this year's Regatta with entertaining commentary. May I also direct you to her write-up on the 2005 race, which Orion and I missed due to being in Europe at the time. But the "boat" (which was a couple of dogsleds and teams of Huskies) looked awesome! Ironically, we could have really *used* the fast river current this year that caused so many problems in 2005.
