Raymond has arrived in Alaska.. He actually got in on Wednesday night but things here at the Head household have been buzy .. with a new baby arriving.. She was born on Friday afternoon and is a darling! Cora Florence Head. She weighed 8lbs.2 oz. has the longest little fingers.. She and her mom came home from the hospital today, Sunday.. It snowed today so Raymond is looking forward to taking a sled out in the snow tomorrow -- depending on how cold it is for Ms. McGee and Lyla and Keenan.. but we will try to get some pictures uploaded ... real soon!
Raymond is getting all geared up for a trip to Alaska to visit the site of where the Great Race gets started .. Anchorage and Wasilla, AK... He has his backpack from his good friend Wally.. He sent it to him from Nova Scotia.. Where Wally spent 2 weeks studying about the Mammals in the area. You should check out the blog about Wally's adventure.
