Gee, Evan must be calmed down now...this last installment to the blog has most things spelled correctly! I love to pick on him...the truth is, I don't care how he spells when he does the blog, just so long as he does it...I love the blog to pieces, and I love Evan for doing it, and the list for providing a venue for it. I think the National is like Christmas...I love everybody and everything then......even when I have to stay home and wait to hear what happens! Things are happening out there at the Ranch...not all good things. The moral of the story is, I guess, to always play by the rules and do no harm.........or things will jump up and bite you in the butt. Les Salowski apparently decided to go to the National after all, and bypass the food here...wise man! I spoke with Kathy Tank a minute or two ago, and the last of the puppy girls were going in for their final turn around the ring...I'm sure some people are already celebrating, and I hope that continues. Others are making plans for next year, and we'll see how those plans turn out........they have not much to do with dogs except peripherally... I wish the Catalog was on line, that's all.
