I just spent 3 hours writing an update to the Iditarod blog and lost it all!!! I updated each checkpoint, wrote an entry on Susan Butcher, updated the location of the 3 mushers I am following and added a footnote to the story of the dog that died....and lost it all!! This is the second time the second time this week I've lost a blog...and both were long!
I don't have time to rewrite the whole thing so I'll just say:
Mackey is in White Mountain and is expected to push for Nome as soon as his mandatory 8 hour rest is over, passing under the burled arch at about 7pm. He has a commanding lead but anything can happen.
Clint is still on the trail in position 40 and Cindy in position 43.
The Alaska Daily News has good information. The official site is useless except for the map and the standings.

Whenever I write a long letter on the net I constantly do a copy because that way if something goes awry, I can paste in most of my letter or journal.
Smart idea.....I was previewing so I could check for spelling, etc. I should have saved as a draft! Man, I had pictures, links...the whole thing....Drats, Drats, Drats!!!
