It's Day 3 on the Ranch.
We arrived safely in Whitehorse and stayed our 1 night in town. We got picked up at 9am by Danielle and arrived at MUKTUK ADVENTURES!!
It's been an amazing experience so far. There's 120 dogs, the youngest litter is 7 months old and are all named after treeish things, like Aspen, Cedar, Pine, etc. The oldest is 17, and boy is he old. Can barely move the poor guy, but he gets around. They're so cute. I want them all.
We do a few jobs with split shifts so we have a bit of down time - housekeeping from 8am-1pm then 5pm-7pm. and Gardening from 8am-11am then 4pm-9pm. It's been interesting, and everyone is really nice. Theres about 8 other volunteers and a few full/part timers, 2 aussies, a lot of germans, a swiss and 2 Danish, but most of them finish up in the next 2-3 weeks so until then we won't be the fresh meat. And as you may of noticed, it's summer here and light 24/7, was easy enough to adjust our sleeping patterns, but when it's light out you just want everything to stay open. June 21st is
the longest day - summer equinox!!! Amazing sites, lots of treks and 120 tummies to rub. Couldn't ask for anything more.
