That circle of life thing

We are in Lewiston Idaho, where Teaz has so far flunked and had two major deductions - sigh.  However, the weather is very nice so I took Sketcher for a walk to a dogwood tree I'd taken a picture of Diver in front of, when at these same shows.

Eleven years later, the tree has been trimmed, the one behind it removed, and I'm two cameras down the line from the first one, but still the same place where we took a flower picture just before Diver won his first all breed High in Trial.  It makes me feel good to be someplace where he enjoyed himself, and to be sharing it with Sketch.

Eleven months!

He's getting to be such a big boy!  He didn't grow any taller this past month but he's filled out some - and blown his puppy coat all over the back yard ...

He'll start matching in Rally Novice and Beginner Novice soon, as I hope to have him ready by the specialty in September.
