First I would like to Thank UKC for the opportunity to judge the Bench show. It was an honor and a privilege to do so. I had a blast and hope i did a good job. I would like to thank all the participants for bringing their dogs to compete and the way each and everyone of you presented yourselves.

Next I want to thank Allen, Joyce, Kayla and Krystal for all their hard work. To the field reps for all their efforts. Steve Fielder for working with me and for all your conversations. It does help.

To the local coonhunters for putting this event on. You guys and gals did a great job.

As many of you know my family suffered a great tragedy last month. I almost backed out of judging the show. I am so glad i didn't. Seeing old friends and meeting new friends has been a help in the healing process. Thank you all for being a part of that. This world of coonhounds and hunters is equaled by none.

Again a big thank you to everyone involved.
