Ah yes... gaps and 45 minute breakfast's AND lunches AND dinners, lol.. how
well I can relate. Can you say OVERBITE? Needless to say I am praying. Poor
Boomer... Rio has his teeth in so he can power through anything and then
takes advantage of Boomer getting tired of chewing his own treasures and
steals them, lol.

Yes, definitely will say prayers for the Shipman family for light winds,
moist conditions and easy tracks for both girls in Fairbanks. I am so glad
they will get to see that land up there and realize why I'm so jealous of
the Fairbanks club. As far as you can see in all directions it's open flood
plain with trees and scrub and it's just wonderful.

Glad your temps have cooled off! ours have dropped off dramatically here.
Yesterday morning was 32 on the back deck and brrrrr... it was a bit chilly.
