THANK YOU TO OUR
SOLDIERS AND VETERANS FOR OUR FREEDOM |
Thank
you Padlock Ranch!
|
Yep, it's
almost Thanksgiving - our best wishes to you and your family for a
blessed one. We hope to get this page updated soon.
Summer -
September 2009 - The highlight for us was our was our short
September get-away to the mountains via Padlock Ranch, Dayton,
Wyoming. Thank you
Wayne
Fahsholtz,
Padlock Ranch CEO, Tony and Vickie Line and Jerry Howard for
having us, and giving us the red carpet treatment. We both
thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone and the clinic itself. We
spent the day after the clinic with our good friend, Dean Delp and
family, Hardin, Montana. Dean was able to make the first day
of the clinic. Those of you who have brought dogs for training
this summer, thank you. |

It was an
honor to celebrate John and Karen Tate's (Seneca, Missouri) 40th
wedding anniversary with their family and friends in July. Means
relatives Theo and Sara Beth Kelly from Colorado stopped by while
making a circle from Colorado to Texas to Missouri and home
visiting relatives. Sure seems like the days came and went
in a hurry. It's turned off cool this month and we've
already seen 3 flocks (gaggles??) of Canadian Geese flying south.
Guess that means winter is around the corner. Time to lay in
fire wood.
All of you are
appreciated. Have a blessed day, Ben and Leslie
