W/R/T  THE THANKSGIVING HUNT... IT REALLY IS A SPECTACLE THAT THE GENERAL PUBLIC CAN ENJOY-    BLACK AND RED JACKETS-- HORSES ALL BRAIDED UP...  100 HORSES AND THE PACK OF MYOPIA HOUNDS  LEAPING AROUND HAMILTON AREA..  PHOTO OP BIG TIME.

IT STARTS AT APPLETON FARMS IN THE BIG FIELDS WHERE HIGHLAND AVE AND GOODXXXX  ROAD MEET... GATHERING ABOUT 9:30 AND OFF CLOSE TO 10.   I JUST USUALLY GET THEM OFF OVER THE FIRST FEW FENCES-- BUT IT IS POSSIBLE TO GO BY CAR  TO VARIOUS PLACES WHERE THEY WILL BE CROSSING THE ROAD...

IT IS A "DRAG" HUNT--- WHERE THE HOUNDS FOLLOW THE SCENT OF A RAG SOAKED IN SOMETHING-- WHICH HAS BEEN DRAGGED AROUND THE ROUTE TH EHUNT WANTS TO GO...

CUTTING AND PASTING-- BLESS YOU  ---



  Hi Carlene and Megan!
  
 I hope all is well. I just wanted to give you an update. Teal is REALLY liking 
high school. He is wagging his tail down the hallways. There was an unexpected 
fire drill at school on Friday. This is his first. Jocelyn said it was very 
loud. Teal was very scared at first and would not get up. Jocelyn's aid started 
pushing her wheelchair out the door and Jocelyn was pulling Teal. She said after 
a minute or so, he got right up and did his thing. He pulled her wheelchair out 
the door ( a little fast though). He went to the rest of the crowd and he didn't 
hesitate to go back in the building ( w/ his tail wagging). Jocelyn was VERY 
impressed as well as her aide!!! We will be up soon to visit!
  
  
 Thanks,
  
 Mandy, Jocelyn and Teal

Hi Carlene,

I wanted to let you know that Damien is doing really great! We have been VERY 
busy over the last several months.
Damien is not only perfect when we take him to the mall, grocery store, and 
restaurants he has also become an expert in football, soccer, and baseball 
games! Funny how he has now realized the difference between organized chaos on 
the ball field and unorganized chaos at our house. At first he kept ALL eyes on 
the field ready to join in the fun. Now he just ignores the game and enjoys his 
bone while laying on his blanket.
With 3 boys and constant activity Damien has settled in just fine. He loves to 
run around crazy with our Choc. Lab when we're not out and about and sleep on 
his favorite chair during down time.
