3 Years

To celebrate our 3rd anniversary, we spent the night at a farmhouse in Ashton, ID so we could attend the American Dog Derby- the longest running dog sled race in North America. We were sans Rachael, and I missed her. She apparently was fine with the separation. It was fun to spend time with just Patrick and I, although I would not repeat the farmhouse thing when 8 months pregnant again. The night before we ate at one of the 4 restaurants in town, 511 Main which is a new place, but they kept the original soda fountain that was in the drug store before. We shared a chocolate banana malt. Yummy. The next morning, we got up early (for a Saturday) to get to the races. We enjoyed watching the dogs. They were so excited to get moving, jumping everywhere. There were hundreds of dogs and a variety of races from 20 to 90 miles over 2 days. They also had children's snowshoe races and a mutt run.
