Were getting hammered with a blizzard right now, looks like dogs arent going to be in shape for the eliminator. I hate winter anymore, maybe I'm just getting older. Theyre calling for 8 to 18 inches with 40 mph winds! UGH! Just wandering if everyone east of missouri is going to be hit with this. Maybe a fat dog will have to win it this year. LOL.

Lance, its gonna hit Buffalo around 10pm, and I just busted a frozen water pipe in the crawl space of my bathroom! It will be a waterless storm for me. Hold on tight and get your shovel ready! Be safe!

Smokes Creek, I hope your power don't go out. You need to stay on the treadmill so you will be ready for when you come Tick Ridge in March.











Stay warm, my friend.

Hey Lance my thoughts exactly about the hounds being laid up and not in shape. The weather and lack of game has taken its toll on my beagling. Got a well bred pup that is not started and a few others I may have sell to do them justice. see ya buddy-anthony.
