Lori and Patrick sent many emails and photos from Iditarod 2008. Lori’s brother, John Baker, is a perennial favorite musher. He has run each year since 1996. You can visit his website at http://teamjohnbaker.com/ Also, bookmark http://iditarod.com to follow the race.
John and his team do not do this alone! His siblings and extended family are very involved every step of the way. Read Lori and Pat’s “back stories” here. I have broken them into 3 pages with the many photos and comments that they have sent:
