Happy Friday the 13th, ladies. All of you should have competed in the Veterans bitch class. You all have access to my unlisted landline. Molly and Nia have my cell number, There can never be a dog show without incident. The worxst incident I experienced was the delay in judging the young female classes on Saturday. This caused both Veterans classes to move from the end of the day on Saturday to Sunday morning. The owner of one male had to pull his dog because he needed to drive back to Michigan on Saturday evening. If anyone had a crystal ball, I could have saved on 2 days of lodging and car rental expenses. As it was a warm day on Saturday, I had to frequently check on my boy parked in the shade and with plenty of water.
The second inconvenient incident at the show were the men's and women's restrooms (both 2 holers) that were locked and non-functional onf Saturday and Sunday. Every one had to leave theit loads in the two port-a-potties!!
So. there were no LEOs at this event--nor polizeien, nor gendarmes, nor Texas Rangers. How in hell could a 72-year-old woman and her 10-year old dog be a threat to a sane and rational person? However, on Saturday, one skinhead spectator (who looked the world like schutzstaffel) drew a line in the sand and and attempted to intimidate (for unknown reasons) me by slowing my direct egress from the field to check on my dog in the parked rental car. A that came to my mind was the Bob Dylan song The Man in the Long Black Coat (lyrics: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/bob+dylan/man+in+the+long+black+coat_20021472.html ).
If you want to know where I was every moment of the show, ask Mary Dygert, Tim Burke, Bernd Weber, Roanna Banducci, or Heidi Theis. I went to the "meet and greet the judges" get- together at the host hotel on Friday evening as that hotel was adjacent ot my motel and within easy walking distance. I arrived at the show early with my paperwork on Saturday and stayed through the awards ceremony for the younger classes that same evening. Also, I arrived at the show early on Sunday in order to show my dog, to watch the Progeny Groups, and the Working classes. I also went to the awards ceremony held late Saturday afternoon.
In another post I will provide cell phone photos, taken at the show on Saturday afternoon, at the Sunday awards ceremony, and at the airport on Monday morning. I was lucky to get to my return flight due to a thunderstorm and heavy traffic. Fortunately, the foul weather delayed the incoming flight.
GSD edit: sentence removed as it is non-sense. Since you changed your posts and I noticed I will explain right here which is the same thing I explained to you in pm's. Your focal point of your pics was of the people and not the dogs/event and with most pictures the focal point is the center of the picture and the center of your picture was of a group of people, since you did not have permission to post a picture of that group and there were multiple complaints made, I removed the pictures. Leaving snide comments is getting you no where quick.

GSD edit: snide comments removed.
First, let me post photos taken at the awards ceremony--not very sharp due to camera movement.
Look ata our handsome LC Sieger on the lower left--such a lovely dark face. No, none of these people gave me permission to post their photos. However, Roanna was standing next to me and also taking photos.

If you would like to start a new Sieger Show thread you can as long as it remains about the Sieger show and not some childish stuff that happened years ago that you folks seem fixated on.
LET IT GO FOLKS.
