I hope everyone appreciates the volunteers who did indeed work their butts off for us at home or in the stands. They gave of their time so that we could enjoy a terrific National. From the judges to the aisle police <G> to the local club members, to the camera volunteers & Lana, THANKS~!!! The facility was perfect. Got my exercise in hopping over the seats and going up the stairs then down the stairs. The sod held up better than many times in the past. Love that there was a doubling ring outside the show ring so we in the stands had a clear unobstructed view. It was fun to walk just outside and watch the TT, or the HIC. Kevin's truck had awesome food. Love that chicken salad sandwich! Big Congratulations to all the winners & placers. There were some nice animals out there....what about that Grand Victrix~!! WOW~!! Goosebumps~!! The hotel was nice with plenty of choices for dinner right around it. Made it home in 9 hours (stopped for dinner in Cedar City). Funny thing with that car...the faster we went the better gas mileage we got LOL.
