Ishi's New Snow Suit

Ishi gets cold...  She doesn't have an undercoat yet and after a bunch of running she starts to shake and it isn't even that cold yet.  Vikki sorted through the rag box and couldn't find anything that wouldn't get real wet fast.  We had this vest which was a little too small for us and so with lots of thought and the trusty old sew machine....and some saved buckles...   She is now fitted out.


Ishi stayed in the box behind the skidoo until she was out of the back land and then Bryan let her run.  She can cover the land in no time at all and loves it.  She would race beside the skidoo just having a ball.  Vikki watched them by telescope as they traveled along the lake shore. Bryan said he would put her into the box every mile or so for a break but then she'd want out again to run.  Upon returning by to the cabin she was still not puffing and you could tell she was ready for more.  Oh... to be so young again. ps Thanks John for the nudge to continue on.... that is exactly what Bryan said on the SBX.

Ishi's new jacket looks very warm. You did a very good job on it. We are still looking for something for Taiga.
