Msg: #5 in digest From: "Helen" <helen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Futurity Wood (Helen Franklin) Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2005 10:44:17 -0800 I gave away all my trophy's (big and small) to clubs, but I kept my first Futurity one. Sometimes it's not the trophy but the meaning behind it. Helen Franklin *********************************************************** We showed in futurities before they gave wood. At a Massachusetts club holding the futurity, it was pewter. We all handled our own dogs. First time I've seen solid blacks go 1, 2, 3. Maureen Yentzen was 1st, I was 2nd and hubby was 3rd with a whole bunch of blk/tans behind us. Ginny Vaughn had it right and placed the pups, not the handlers. I'd have preferred owning the pup Maureen had. I gave my little pewter engraved bowl to my friend, Penny, after keeping it here for 25 years. I hope she still has it because she tends to throw everything away. The year was 1961, I believe. (Penny, if you still have the bowl, tell me. :-) *\|/* *\|/* Ellen *\|/* *\|/* ***From w.NY*** http://www.geocities.com/jeenellyn33 Age is just a Number ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2004.
