Were home from ASSA National

Paula, Doreen and I made the trek down to Purina Farms for the American Shetland Sheepdog Assoc Nationals it was a great week, we have seen weather from snow storms, to torrential rains, to hot hot 29 C weather!  We had a blast with old and new friends, the dogs showed awesome, and looked amazing in the ring!

This is the Nature Reserve across from out Hotel, thousands of wild Daffodil's blooming.  Was so gorgeous, wish we'd had time to actually go for a walk in it!

Was acre's and acre's of daffodils and crocus
