Summary
Dale & Harper are discussing their plan to cover their tracks by making Defenders of Gaea financial accounts legitimate over a 3 year period, and for them to buy a yacht for themselves in the process.
Heather rings up from Minneapolis to tell them how things have fallen apart for her. They tell her to stay put while they see if they can con some additional funds from Jenny Easton to pay for a legal fight to stop the Area of Critical Interest order being lifted.
After the hunting season closes, Mike & Mark take the dogs for their first run. They get back after dark, so they are both cold. Mike invites Mark & Jackie over to use the hot tub.
Mike gets home to find he's got a Christmas card from Andy Bairnsfether who has just moved to the Los Angeles Times as an investigative reporter.
Mike and Mark start discussing their Warsaw Run and decide to test part of the route by leaving Warsaw on the Saturday, camping overnight then returning on the Sunday. It will give them a chance to show their teams to Jim Horton.
Jackie said. "Remember what Jim Horton said: `You gotta be nuts to be a dog musher."
"I think these guys qualify," Kirsten agreed.
