Spent a couple of days in Palmer. One day for groceries, haircuts, etc. and another day for fun. We toured the Iditarod Headquarters. Lots of interesting items, race history, etc. Best of all were the sled dogs in particular the sled dog puppies. Also met and talked with some of the mushers that have participated in the race in years past.

Next we took in the Musk Ox farm which was also interesting. Finished up the tourist traps with a visit to the reindeer Farm. Learned that reindeer and Caribou are the same thing. Assume everyone else knew that but I didn’t. While at the reindeer farm I had an opportunity to kiss a moose.
Late evening we took a ride along the very scenic Hatcher Pass road. By the way Palmer is the place where they grow the giant vegetables.
