Good luck to all - I had planned on flying out late Wednesday and home on Sat night but my mom is not doing very well at the moment (91) and to compound her issues - he little old pomeranian that was living with my sister - died this week.
Enjoy and if you get a chance to drive out to Yosemite - do it.
Sorry your not coming was looking forward to "shoot the shit" with you 
Oh and for anyone that is interested, we have already had to move the Af Stock Exb since the place it was to be held is now flooded… sigh.... and the fun begins.... and just think we had so many people complain that we have all the conformation (with the exception of the ASE) indoor... remarking that "it is so nice this time of year in California".... NOT.... :mad:
@Vanessa626:
C'mon B-Boy. I've been trying to get you to come to Ca for months!
You could still make it!!!!
C'mon.. you could stay at our house!
Warm house, good meal, Basenji eating your socks…Bliss!
Hahah
We'll miss ya...But I do believe Texas is in order. See you next year :p
I love that part of California too.:(
Could you imagine Willy, Jasper and Chance loose in your house?:eek: You'd be lucky to get away with just the socks.:D
Texas it is!
Wishing everyone a great and wonderful week. It will be exciting here on the sidelines for all the updates.
Yes, it sounds like a lot of work but fun, fun, fun! Looking forward to hearing (and seeing?) more about how it's going!! Lots of luck to all!
Everyone is probably exhausted. It was a long day yesterday. The last event didn't finish until 7:30pm and then some of us helped with the blood draw which took until about 8:00pm. I had to drive home so I could teach today and didn't actually get home until midnight.
My husband is showing Sophie today in Puppy Sweeps. So far no news about how it is going.
Yesterday Nicky, DC Sherwood's In The Nick of Time SC, RN, LCM took 4th in the 9-11 year Vet Dog class. Pat's boy OJ was the oldest Vet in Sweeps and took 2nd in his class.
Sophie was 2nd in the 50% not greater than 75% 9-12 AF Puppy Class and her brother, Zeke, was 3rd in his class.
It was a sad day, I had to forfit Chance's first event. Hopefully we will be there tomorrow. Paws Crossed.
Thinking about you ladies, don't over do it.
Vanessa, Chance is young, he'll have lot's of shows to do in the future:) .
I know you hate to forfit.:(

Paws crossed for Vanessa and Chance 
Lisa/Pat–do you know how late the events will go Friday afternoon? I'm going to be in a meeting in San Ramon in the a.m. and wanted to stop by the fairgrounds in the afternoon. I couldn't tell from the schedule what time the afternoon events would start and end.

We start at 10am… and most likely will be done around 2/3pm.... however if you can, come by on Saturday for the Basenji Club of Northern California Specialty... (yes us here in No Cal are nuts to have put on a National Specialty followed directly by our regional Specialty)

Well, I haven't taken any pics yet…too busy chatting but I will try...I can't promise I can get them downloaded onto this "cr@p top"!
Does anybody know where I can check for results? I heard through the grapevine that Magnum's dad won some sort of veteran's award, and I'd like to confirm that.
NM, I got my answer. Magnum's dad (Ch Nyanga Signet Sweet William) won Best Veteran. Cool! Thanks for the update, Pat!

By the way, not only did Will win Best Veteran in Sweeps, but he was also Best of Breed for the entire Specialty from the 7 to 9 Veteran class!…
