"By the shores of Nushagak, Beaver Round Up. When the trappers all come back, Beaver Round Up... where we travel in the old familiar waaaaay! And celebrate the Round Up time in Dillingham, Ak!" Yes it is a song, and you should download it from iTunes, it is a top 100 hit.
We are celebrating the final days of our yearly Beaver Round Up, with about 0 inches of snow, which is very unusual. This doesn't mean we haven't been having a lot of fun, it just means we haven't been able to watch snow-go races or dog sled races (sniff). I can't remember the last time we didn't have one or the other.
The start of Beaver Round Up is the parade, which was a lot of fun, very loud, with a ton of candy, snow or snow!
We have really been looking forward to the costume race, which happens after the parade. We dress in our favorite costumes and run like crazy animals from N&N to the fire hall. This year Jon was a crazy bird, first K ketchup, me mustard, Sis was a witch and baby was Tigger. We had people yelling at us, "You are my favorite condiment!" haha. Priceless.
What a fun way to start BRU!
