Itâ??s another dog show. I am sitting with Jerry Graham again, it is good to see him back at the shows. Summer won the 9-12 class, (and Juniors). There were five dogs in the class and Walter worked them hard and demanded a loose lead, at a walk and at a full trot. I see the Guz is here and in the ring. Gail Hardcastle is talking to the Kochâ??s and she did a super job yesterday. Raul and Orttie are sitting with Jean and Sharon Pico and I see Linda Curry accross the ring. This looks like a real dog show. Venders at one end of the ring, tents around the entire ring, and obedience off to the side. Karen Taylor is talking to Tedi, and I see that Bill Tank and his famous brother the Judge Ken Tank are both showing. Ken is just showing his own dogs. Grace Cassidy is in the ring, and she does a great job on the dogs, and will be at the national, so far. Debbie Frieberg is walking over at the end of the ring, and Now Bill Basu is taking a dog around and a good one. I took some pictures with my phone camera, and have no idea how to send them, but maybe I can figure out how to send them to Zoe, and she can send them to the List. Ken Tank is yelling at his dog, better than yelling at Kathy. His bitch wonâ??t slap him upside the face. Walter is working the crowd and we are having a lot of fun. The Guz is making comments too. It looks like Walter is having a great time. Dick Jennings is here too and it seems like the old days. Stacy and her mother Barbara came again, and Liz Leshhorn is back and here with Robert. Jackie and Tom Pillipant are at the show now, and it is a real show, since Tom and Vivian are here. Walter is having them walk, and it is hard for everyone to do. We arenâ??t used to that, but everyone is trying. I JUST GOT THE NEWS. HARLEY IS NOW A GRAND CHAMPION! Paula called and he got the third major, and she counts 25 points. How cool is that? There is a great food place here on the grounds. It is meditarian and has fantastic chicken sandwiches, and ground beef with spices. I ate there yesterday and again today. Summerâ??s dad is from Lebonon so he is used to that food, and he says it is excellent as well. Anyone staying here should eat at the chicken place on the corner. Bill and Ken Tank are talkngto each other, and I see that Erin Nellis is here looking as good as she always does, and getting ready to double handle. Summer is sitting between Tedi and I, and it sort of feels like having our own kid. I donâ??t like that feeling. The Funks had winnerâ??s dog and so they are happy, and Celeste Draper is holding a great little puppy. I did talk to Jean Whalen for a minute and Cathy Bennett is here woking the crowd. I didnâ??t get time to talk to Kim Schooley so I will try harder tomorrow. I did talk to Anne Thompson, but she is busy with the dogs. More later. Evan L.
