First of all, thank you so much to Lanalee and all her many helpers for the streaming video - it was almost (but not quite) as good as being there. With all the time I spent in front of the computer lots of "other stuff" just got delayed!!! Thank you too, Evan, for your blog - when I was reading I had the sounds of The National running in background to get the atmosphere. Now I'm back in the real world.....ah well. Also BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Trevor Golden as Best Junior Handler. We have known Trevor for several years here in the Austin area - he is so dedicated to the sport and on top of that a very nice young man from a great family. Did you hear the scream when he was announced - that was his very proud Mom, Mary, I'm sure she is still walking on cloud nine! Pat Eastonbennevisgs@xxxxxxxxxxx P.S. PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDARS........The German Shepherd Dog Club of Austin is having a PUPPY MATCH on NOVEMBER 13 in Dripping Springs (yes that is the real name of a small town here in Texas) ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
