afterthoughts

 Almost forgot to thank the staff and owners of Hotel Eva, in Tenino, WA, for their wonderful hospitality which is, of course, my best friend Eva Kopf and her wonderful Jam Schipperkes. Without you we would have drowned in the freezing rain that fell all weekend at the show, not to mention froze our collective butts off. Did you know it's possible to pull out a crate cart, set up nine crates, grooming bag and sundries, all with bungie cords in place and be pulling through the front doors of the show buildings in under 4 minutes? Standing in a frozen, windy downpour is great motivation....

Timberland shows (in Elma)

Well, Marie is the best ring steward ever!! How organized she is!!! I hope Norma appreciates how hard Marie worked! (I will HINT this to Norma today in an e-mail.) It was the most miserable weather imaginable for a dog show weekend. Just horrible. Thank God we showed inside! I showed a chihuahua to Winners Dog for the first time ever. It was fun to FINALLY win something with a chihuahua. Marie and Norman have great chihuahuas with great, showy temperaments. They LOVE dog shows.
