[Lynn & The Chins]

Mark and Dick are in route. I'm getting ready to load chins and head out! See everyone there!

WOO HOO!!! I'm glad that you guys are underway!!! Drive carefully and I'll see you tomorrow!!!

 

[Riven]

We're all here, roads weren't half as bad as anyone predicted, clear most of the way with less than 1 inch of snow along most of the route. There has been more wet snow tonight... so anyone coming in in the morning drive carefully! If anyone is coming yet, we need more chins! Bring 'em in!!

 

[Shahna]

Glad to hear everyone made it in safe! I was following the weather for a while and they made it sound pretty bad...

You guys have a great show, and I hope to join you next year.

 

[Godins Chinchillas]

I hope we get live updates!!

I won't be making it in time to groom, if at all. That's a big IF.....I can't get off our road, so at the mercy of waiting for a plow...

Good luck!!!!

Technically it is still snowing here... not much but it sure it purdy!

Please everyone post pics!

We got more snow through the night, and you're right...the snow from this morning was beautiful. Like crystals.

I heard from Mark and the show was starting late...closer to 11AM.

Great show, got some good comments after the show from Joe Bulter ( special thanks to Joe and Breanna for coming! ) even though he kept trying to buy all of my chins... from the ones that I have in hand, to the ones Mark had for me, to the ones I got from Maynard!

Wishing for another big show next, missed those crazy California girls!

:thumbsup:

 

[Dewdrop]

Mark, Maynard, and John cleaned house! LOL

Congrats. Can't wait for pics.

Were there not many ebonies? Since there was only a CC awarded....?

Everyone please have a safe trip home.

Next year or the year after I will be there! I finally get to say that this is my LAST year of school, so no more excuses not to get to the surrounding shows!
