November, SoftMaple's Gunflint Skywatcher WC JH earns her Junior Hunter title at the Black Warrior Retriever Club Hunt test. Great job Connie and Stella!

October SoftMaple's Gunflint Skywatcher WC earns her third Junior Hunter Leg at the Middle TN Hunt test

I am way behind in my news page! Been busy at work, and trying to save some of my Geocities web pages...which is a lost cause!

Rosie has gotten quite a few Q's in Agility. Masters Standard, Masters Jumpers and Steeplechase to name a few she has qualified in.

Ziva has picked up some points this summer. Torrie finished her Championship at the Fingerlakes shows. Moxie passes a NADAC tunnelers class. Moxie and her son Emmet got passes at a Sanctioned Hunt Test match. Denzel has gotten another 1st prize from beginners class in cold game test. In June- Moxie takes a pretigious Best Veteran in Show at the Southwestern Ontario Sporting Dog Specialty in Dorchester, Ontario

I'll have to look back at my emails and see what else! And I guess my New Years resoulution for 2010 will be to keep better track of my webpage updates!

Announcement: After many years, Geocities is closing down this summer. I have about 12 zillion WebPages scattered across Geo. Some will be moved, some will just disappear into the black hole of cyberspace. There is no way to move them all to another web host. Some of them are in desperate need of cleaning up and updating as it is! Geocities was a great place to learn about web pages. (and a super place to store thousands of pictures and pedigrees!)
