The art of writing a letter still exists. I can prove that by the hundreds of letters that I am still receiving from some of my youngest fans. I do believe that the entire 2nd grade class at Del Mar Pines School in San Diego has sent me correspondence this week.

I need to thank the folks at Pleasant Valley Store and Trailside Mail for sorting and packing my post office box. I know it gets somewhat full at times… sorry!

All the kids get a letter from me. I also have some fantastic photo card handouts that Matson printed up for the Iditarod start weekend. I have some leftover and so in every response I’ve been able to add a packet of “Aliy Cards” as well as one or two “Dog Cards”. Who’s card would you choose?

I know… impossible to choose, eh? I just grab them randomly.

Here are some of the fun drawings that were included with my recent letters. Thanks kids. You put a smile on my face!
