Afternoon all. I have had an interesting 24 hours. I left work yesterday a little early since I was heading out to Seneca NY for a dog show. The 5 hour drive was progressing nicely until I hit Biblical rains. It was raining as hard as I ever saw it during my 4 years in Miami. A little delay, but no problem. Only 5 miles to the exit and the highway became a parking lot. There was an accident ahead and I sat in the same spot an hour. Oh Well...fast forward to today.
We show up at the dog show to find someone was planning on a mud bowl. I mean there was mud everywhere. Within 5 minutes I confirmed the loafers I was wearing were a poor choice when I felt mud pooling between my toes. I spent a hour trying to keep my long haired dachshund from getting muddy. Mainly this involved me carrying him everywhere (he weighs 30#). Finally it's our turn in the ring. In we walk..around we go...out of the ring we go. No ribbon for us today.
I was covered in mud, the dog was covered in mud and the van is covered in mud. Makes me question my choice of hobbies.
Oh well, tomorrow is another day....
