We were down by the sea and let Boom and Chauncey swim.... Here is some photos. We had a lovely day and this is in the evening. This is a little how it looks in our archipelago (don't know if it's the right word I took it from a lexicon).

We're off to Norway this weekend and next week is the BIG World dog show in Stockholm. It's over 22.000 dogs!!!! It's 143 Aussies!!!! It will be a LOTS of Thornapples there.

I know: Boom, Chauncey, Damon, Diablo, Enya, Jada, Sarah, Slash, Sydor, Latte, Lucy, Olivia. That is what I know but maybe it's coming even more :-)) Hugs A-L

 I have a lovely photo of Angelica (that I haven't send before, sorry) it was from the weekend in the beginning of June when we were in Norway.

She actually stands in snow, and she did a snowball!!!! Isn't that cool in the middle of the summer!!!! Hug, A-L

G'day Ellen & Amy. This arrived today and I just had to share.I was surprised the photographer included it but it sure put a smile on my face. grin * Amanda --- Venti is sired by Ch Thornapple Single Barrel Shasta Kennel Club, 13th June 2008. Judge was Vincent Mulligan.

Well, its that time of the year and we took a small trip this weekend.We decided to see how Venti would like the surf. We reached the beach and he went nuts! Dove straight into the water like he has been doing it for years.

Towards the end of the day he began to actually start riding the waves in. He loved it!!! I guess I shouldn't be surprised he is after all a California boy at heart! What a little surfer dude! Venti must take after Cruzan's love of water because his mumma Minnie sure hated that water. Amanda

V is IvoryIsle's Coffee Bean. He is after all meant to be Venti but for some reason V is used a lot more *grin*. Much quicker to get out of ones mouth! Amanda
