WELL....IT WAS DEVASTATING TONIGHT...JUST DEVASTATING.....WE WAITED IN THE FREEZING COLD FOR LIKE TWO HOURS FOR THE FIRST MUSHER TO COME THROUGH. IRAN PICKED THE MOST PERFECT SPOT ON THE ICE...WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT. AFTER BEING SO COLD AND TIRED...TOES TOO FROZEN OR PAINFUL TO WALK (YOU KNOW WHEN YOU GET SO COLD YOUR NERVE ENDING SHOOT UP PAIN THROUGH YOUR TOES..WELL I WAS BEYOND THAT POINT, NO FEELING PERIOD)...HERE THE MOMENTOUS MOMENT COMES...I WHIP OUT THE "WORK VIDEO CAMERA" FOR THE MOMENT WE ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR, THE DOG TEAM RUNNING ONLY FEET IN FRONT OF US.... ONLY TO FIND A DEAD BATTERY THAT DID NOT EVEN GET ANY OF MY FILM!!! THE COLDNESS MUST HAVE ZAPPED THE BATTERY. I AM IN ABSOLUTE DEVASTATION...WELL, ON A POSITIVE NOTE...AT LEAST I GOT TO SEE IT LIVE! HERE IS THE LOUSY PIC I GOT AFTER THE FACT AT THE "FINISH LINE". :(
