News Update From Brier

[Gina Heitz <brier@oregonsbest.com>]

Hi All,

My haven't we all been quiet!  I feel like I am posting to myself just to 
read my own words!  My mother (rest her sole) use to say she thought I 
talked just to hear the sound of my own voice.  Boy if she only had a 
computer with her now eh?

News on SeaJay:  Monday the 29th SeaJay leaves for boot camp at Gun River 
Labs & Training.  He will be there for a month and is going to be formally 
trained for running Hunt Tests in hopes that by the end of the summer we 
will have his first JH leg on him.  It takes 4 legs to get a JH (AKC Junior 
Hunter title).   So wish brother, father, uncle & frisky friend to all with 
a tail and a wiggle well on his training adventure and pray there are no 
Labrador's in season at Gun River, please, he needs his brain...

News on Lucy:  Lucy and I are going to have a fun filled May.  We start off 
with a warm up set of shows in Olympia the weekend of 4 & 5th.  Going up to 
stay with Casino pup Katie and her family, Peggy Kurt and the two cats who 
I cant remember their names sorry kitty.  Then for Memorial week Thursday 
through Sunday she and I are going to be in Canada to Vancouver Island for 
4 shows and a puppy sweeps.

News on Liberty:  Who's that?  Well it's a bit of a long story but we have 
adopted one of Lucy's sisters.  No pictures available yet of her on a web 
page of her own but she is of course on Lucy's page in the litter photo, 
just which one I am not sure, but think it's orange. Liberty will make her 
debut in the UCI shows the weekend of May 11 & 12 along with her 1/2 
brother Rion, no we do not have Rion, he lives with Judy.  But we like 
him...  Needless to say May is going to be a busy month here show and 
travel wise.


Patti and Bill (Goldie and Dialabo) and two kitties sorry forgot names 
again, were here for a brief visit on their way to Montana (new home) this 
past weekend.  It was great to meet both of them and to see the kidz again, 
Goldie is a sister to SeaJay and Dialabo is a brother to Bogey Shinsato. Oh 
Lori, it's a good thing we sent Dialabo to Patti can you say BIG hair just 
like dad?

 Bill was a great help, he helped George rebuilt our front gate.  I will 
let Bill tell that story....   Patti and I groomed the two goldens so I now 
have yet another groomer I feel comfortable referring to.  So if in Montana 
and need a groomer call  555-Patti.

Other than the above, not much earth shaking news from here.
