What a wonderful weekend in Santa Maria!  This weekend is my favorite and a 
show I had planned to attend even if Rachel had been in whelp.  Who can resist 
the annual soiree at Chez Cindy and Bev?  It was probably meant to be that my 
wild child was not in whelp and was shown!
On Saturday, under Judge Kathy Potter, Eclipse's Rachel Carson finally 
finished!!!  There are so many people to thank.  First is Sheryl Brockett who 
took 
an untamed wild child and gave her focus and predictability in the ring.  
Debbie Kaser, her loving hand on the lead through her first major and beyond 
meant 
the world to me.  Bill Tank, that second major let me breath and believe that 
she would finish.  Jerry Guzman, what his finesse on the lead did for my girl 
in beyond description.  Bob and Carol Moore, started her career and even gave 
her BOS.  Rita Sandell that first major and then a fourth place open bitch at 
the National, thank you seeing her beauty.  Kathy Casteel worked Rachel hard, 
not knowing that we would have to change handlers before she got tired.  
Finally, Kathy Potter for those last points that made her a champion.  I also 
think 
it is important to add that Sheryl and Debbie co-owned the bred-by bitch in 
winners, and put Rachel first in their thoughts and prayers.  "Rosie Maroni" is 
a beautiful bitch and I am looking forward to her championship.  Cindy and 
Bev have been in her corner forever.  Sharlonna who kept reminding that her 
time 
would come.  There are many more people to thank, and I will do a LOT of that 
privately.

The ring side support was amazing.  There were so many people that were happy 
for the two of us.  Thank you for you support and kind words.  You have no 
idea how much that meant to me.

Rachel is a double BOSS granddaughter.  Her daddy is Ch Mar Haven's Elite 
Guard (ELI) and her mom was PimaLan's No Regrets.  I know that Greta is smiling 
from the Rainbow Bridge at her little girl.  I did not have her for long, but 
the gift she left me in Rachel is beyond words.  Thank you Don and Joyce Newsom 
for my Greta.  She was loved.  Thank you Frank and Carolyn Martello for 
allowing ELI to live with me.  He is a joy.  I had picked him as stud dog when 
I 
planned on breeding Greta, but I had no idea that he would be mine by the time 
she was bred.  

Congratulations to all the winners this weekend.  It was a fun show with 
great hospitality.
