 * Final Assinment

I want to go to A.K. because of the dog race, or ‘the Iditarod.’ The first one was in 1973. It happened because the town of Nome was in great peril. There was a disease called ‘diphtheria’ the dogs raced to anchorage to get the cure called ‘anti-toxin.’ The firs fun race was in 1975. The weather is often snowy and cold, but I should think it would be worth it. Alaska is west from Canada and south from the North Pole. Some of the racers a.k.a musher’s names are Hugh Neff, Silvia Willis, and Jeff King. So again, I want to go because of the Iditarod!
