That's the year everyone went out and bought summer clothes( shorts and T-shirts. )I'd still rather have that then the cold for the performance people. Perry was always perfect Perry was great, if you didn't mind red clay on everything, fire ants, a two hour drive from the airport, hidden rental cars returns, and for the first few years the best place to eat was Wendys. When Kathleen Steen first found Perry, she called me and asked what I thought of a great location with few motels, no good restraurants, and in the middle of nowhere. I told her we were there for a dog show, the rest didn't matter. Now we talk about Perry as if it was the heaven we all are waiting for. It might be like your first car. Memory is kind on those sort of things. Evan L.
