Hail Hail! The Gang's All Here!!!

Well, almost everybody...Still a few more to ck in and drive up.  But there's Lots of Collies at our hotel, and the NC colition has arrived.  They made it in TWO days...Makes me tired just thinking about it.

I was snapping away with my camera.  Here's a few shots of some Collie folk. 
This is Eileen. She's from VA.  She flew in, dogless....We've got several to loan her should she need a Collie-fix....

Hugs all around from Carl and crew.

And the Madam flew in---bearing only ONE suitcase!!!

With her came Nancy Van Note...It is SOOO wonderful to meet her in person!!  Doesn't she have a welcoming smile!

Nancy Van Note recognized James right away.  He EXpects his Publick to know him...

This is Carl's sister Brenda, meeting Nancy VN for the first time.  As you can see, she only has eyes for James....He kinda DOES that to people....

Here's the group in the hotel lobby. Uh, yeh....That's Nancy McDonald....She tripped and broke her dang fibula in the puppy pen.....Dunno HOW she's gonna race around the ring this week...but she sure is taking it with grace and courage.

SOME folks might look at the above picture and think "construction site."  But others might look at it and think, "Go Tunnel!"

Here's James trying out the Agility equipment at the nearby hotel going up....It was pretty cool...he'd go In one, then turn and come back thru another...

SOMEtimes my camera just isn't Fast enough...
