You Ought To Be In Pictures. Heck, You Are In Pictures.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well, this blog is about 78,000 words long.  This trip down memory lane started with a potluck at Jamie and Harvey's.
 As food was getting prepared, Lil' Stambulic thought he would have a ride on Dexter.

 Faster Dexter, faster!!
 Suppertime - come and get it!!

 Cooked to perfection.
 King Stormy listens to the princesses, while Jester Roberts looks on.
 George, hate to tell you, but Peter is sleeping through those glasses.
 Wonder what I will do with my $10,000 winnings from the Stampede.
 Listening intently.
 From all accounts, the complaints department was very slow.
 One of the many sponsors.
 Farmer's market.
 Jared Epp, resting before his run.
 Liqourice from the sponsors.
 Princess Naomi with Nim (rod).

 Looking good Nim.
 Breakfast of champions...well of Thad Buckler anyways.
 The judges lookout.
 Novice run.  Up and coming open handler.
 Chris sets for everybody and his dog.
 Jared Epp pens.
 Louanne's Craig third trial ever.  Break a leg Craig...oops, I mean good luck.



 Good for first place - good boy Craig!!
 Okay Scor, let's see what we can do.

 But Jamie, I didn't mean to pee on the setout dog, really I didn't.
 I paid how much for you?
 Okay Nim - give me a good outrun, and keep your temper in check.
 Good girl!
 Better get your items before they are gone!
Spectator tent. 
 Cory Perry and Drift.

 Got them!
 Jennifer Larivee says, "Good boy Tweed!"
 It is starting to feel chillier.
 Have you seen Toto!?!
 Dorothy and his crew replacing panels in the wind.
 Protected from the wind in the Pug.

 Pretty in pink - even my drink matches. 
 Handler's supper.
 "Really, I am in the Nursery Finals with Mack!  Really!"

 Paparazzi everywhere.
 Now the time for awards.

 Overall Open - Ian Zoerb and Sam.
 Dale Montgomery and Zip in second.
 Norm and Lexi third - he wins a hat....and Art Unsworth.
 Overall Nursery - Louanne Twa and Mack - no really!
 Cory Perry and Drift second (now he has a bed to go with the quilt that he won).
 Jennifer Larivee and Mitch for third - nice hat!
 No, I did not win this - Joni Swanke and Gus wins overall for ProNovice.
 Wayne Roberts and Chemro wins his own bed.
 Chris Jobe and Fly gets a hat.
 Ooops, wrong hats given out - these were the third place hats.  Norm, you will look good in pink.
 As you see, Chris looks good in pink. Harvey looks radiant in red, and Earl, from Vancouver, wears blue very well.
 Final day!  Louanne pens with Mack in Nursery Finals.
 Awards for Nursery - George Stambulic and Nan wins fourth.
 Jennifer Larivee and Mitch wins third.
 Happy Louanne wins Reserve with Mack.
 The big weener - Cory Perry and Drift wins 2012 Western Canadian Finals Nursery .
 The winning double lift run - hold on to your hats!

 Good girl Lexi!
Driving competition - Alberta rules.
 Go Jo, go!
 Go Mik, go!
 Okay girls, your job is done.
 Chris Schmaltz on Jamie's Nickki.  A good setter with good dogs.
 The 2012 Western Canadian Finals finalists.  I'll drink to that!
 Big buddy Norm Sommer and Lexi wins heavy cup.  Dale Montgomery and Zip takes Reserve.
The 2012 Western Canadian Finals was a huge success.  Keep the date open for next year - same place, same time - but let's add the 2013 Canadian Championships to the agenda as well!!
And maybe next year I will remember to get someone to take pictures of me and my dogs!

  3. They only need one thing for their website maintenance and nofollow service for
    the promotion. PrevalentQuestion: Choose the definition that best reflects the meaning of the word
    below. For example, if your online customers can't find your website how are they going to buy from it? One study showed an association between the consumption of a lot of time and money both. Read many articles that can help you reach the target audience. Free Website Analysis for Nofollow often got in the WAY of business.
