He is really cute! But considering Casey's and Nelson's constantly-shedding coats, I can't muster sympathy.

Me and Don can pick Eriker up on the way home from New Mexico. Problem solved. :jump:


You guys are so thoughtful! I want to come in the worst way, but need to think about the dogs in a kennel and the costs with that. After our finances settle down (it sure would be helpful if our old house would sell), I'm going to take the two younger dogs to obedience and then agility classes. The people that own the facilities also have boarding kennels there so would be perfect for our lot since they'll get to know everyone there. The two younger ones need some socialization and don't do well in kennels at the moment.

Next year... :jump:

In the mean time, I'll try not to sulk too much when I see all the wonderful photos of my Ohio clan. Wish I could be there for all the hugs and great company. :flower: :grouphug:

Mel is adorable. Love his "Riser's" butt. :grin:

And now I've had to disappoint Eriker even further by postponing my visit to see her and Paul in their new digs; was supposed to go down there this weekend but need to go up to New Hampshire for family reasons now. It's a bummer, I was really looking forward to seeing them!! :(

A new batch of limoncello is soaking, and there's a couple of liters left of the last batch.

Mal doesn't care. He answers to Mal-icious (when he's being cute), Mal-content (when he's sleeping), even Mal-nutrition (when it's time to eat). So Mel works too! :)

For those who will be at BEOTS Weds, Casey and Nelson's birthday is 6/20 (C,9; N,2). Big party - dancing cats, singing goats, etc.

Probably be too raunchy for YouTube - dancing cats (you have heard of polecats?). And when Casey and Nelson get a little tipsy, they start telling dirty jokes...

Here Casey and Nelson are swapping jokes. The soundtrack has been muted because this is a family-oriented site...

The new and improved C102, not as pretty or as big as Lennys, but this dog can hunt.

Hi, Andy!

I dunno what I'll be bringing. Maybe the 12" RC; folks are always asking how that is visually and, of course, I've never looked through it!
