Sure. My first National was in 1971 in Detroit. We had just moved to Connecticut and Brian was about 2. My sister took care of him. It rained in Detroit and I came down with a lovely cold. Anyway, the National was very exciting. I think it was Julius Due who was doing intersex and he kept running Mannix of Fran-Jo and Asslan of Robinsway. Mannix took the honors. Aloha von Bid Scono was GVX. What beautiful dogs!! There were 2 big parties then at the National. The Victory Dinner on Saturday night and a big casual dinner on Friday night. It was lots fun. I missed 72 which was in GA and I think rivaled Lexington in terms of being cold and 73 which was held in Seattle. By that time we had moved to Dayton, OH and knew Scorpio from when he was just a baby. And I remember one of the specialty shows in Dayton which was held on show grounds with an old airplane. David was about 3 and Brian about 5. Well, naturally, the plane was the big attraction and Brian was climbing on it so of course David had to do the same. David is standing on the wing about to jump and someone says "Where is that child's Mother?!" Well, I knew David would jump and that I would not get the "Mother of the Year Award".
