Roading:

· Lea, Midge, Sorrel & Brenna – taking it a bit easy on the dogs now and let them put back on a bit of weight. 32 min.

Meadows:

· Mariah & Brie - Brie had a nice course and a stylish find in the cover – Mariah coming in and handled a command back by Bob as she couldn't see Brie. Ed was on the control for her as Bob flushed a single that Brie broke after the shot. Brie was corrected and both sent on with Mariah doing a nice job with a point near time. Tons of class and manners but delayed chase as Ed mounted. Corrected and sent on. 32 min.

· Lily & Robin –Lily an improved race as we worked around the course w/ Robin starting to see the light. Lily sticky a couple of times buried in the woods and birds leaving her in the cover but she didn't see. No birds – 35 min.

· Rio & Bandit – Bandit a restricted race as it appears her hip was pretty sore still and she's back on the IR list. Rio had a strong race and was reaching the extremes having been spotted up in the hills on Sidell's. He ran big but no birds officially seen. He really has improved and shows a lot of potential. Handling yet independent.

Thursday evening was a great dinner with Stan cooking a beef tenderloin and all the Painter's were here for dinner. Another wonderful meal and sitting outside listening to music. Dave fixed the speakers but more repairs are needed. We've been fixing things up and trying to get the place ready for our exodus. Ron and Annie decided to stay until Monday.
