Many thanks to the Black Ash crew and the judges that braved the weather. This is my favorite trial of the year. Plenty of birds and friends every year. The only brace I got to walk in the Classic was the winning brace in brutal conditions. Congrats to all the winners and thanks to the judges for all their attention in ugly conditions.

As usual, lunches were excellent. Its worth entering a dog just for the pulled pork lunch, hopefully the chili was just as good on Sunday.

See everyone on August and tell Trish I'll be there to help judge puppies with her again.
