I think the only one we have left to identify is Kimmie's sister - the one between Kimmie and Andy in a striped shirt. My mind is failing me (but when does it not?) as to her sister's name. She has a dog named Sasha. Grace and Gretchen (Grace) are from Michigan and have all cats (I'm thinking 6) and were a big help to me right away when I had the leashes of Tucker, and 3 others I think. At one point they had me so wrapped up, I couldn't move without falling over. Being the sweetheart he is, Tucker was jumping up and biting every dog's neck within reach - mine are used to it but were gettting a little irritated but I think Douglas rescued Tucker from getting sat on by Keegan who was a little more than annoyed at Tucker. I was very glad to meet such a nice couple and really hope they do come more often to our meetings.

Johanna and Jonah were a real gift to us because they entertained the grandchildren who would have never lasted as long as they did without Jonah to interest them. Also Johanna thought further than we did by bringing things for them to do in the shelter. But then again we never get to spend much time in the shelter with 8 dogs there.

Today was a much smaller group. Phred with Cinder and Smoke, Staci with Keegan, Ashley with Jack, Kimmie, Andy, Kimmie's sister and husband, Kia, Chipper and Sasha, Slick, Gini, Laura and Wally Baker, Carl, me, Tucker, Dazzi, Taggert and Pippi. We still had enough food left so again no one went hungry. The dogs again had a great time and of course, so did we all. I took some pictures but didn't get them uploaded. Came home and took a nap. Boy am I tired!
