HOME TO FINISH THE NON MEAT DROP BAGS

Well, after the meat cutting and bagging and drop bag stuffing, I got home at 7 pm. I knew that this would be an 'ALL NIGHTER'.   The kibble bags were already done and loaded into the trailer.

The drop bags were laid out in the tent garage and then the items were placed on the top of each bag.  After carefully checking and rechecking, the bags were filled and then tied and placed into the waiting trailer.


Each drop bag got a bag of booties, a glove bag, a sock bag, a chemical warmer bag, neck warmers.  Some drop bags got two of each.  Neck lines, tug lines, foot ointment, algeval, additional clothing, were placed onto designated bags.  It is quite a process and hopefully we didn't miss anything.  Buddy arrived at about 7 AM and  helped with the assembly line process and loading everything into the trailer.   Then it was off to Mat Valley meats to load up the meat bags.  Then off to Anchorage.

Volunteers lined up to then take the bags to the designated check point pallets.  What a process!
Then it is time to head to the accountant and find out how many pounds we dropped off and pay for shipping.

Drop bags done....what a huge relief!
