During
the spring of 98 I took a vacation to the Southwest. Of course, being a dog person,
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go to a dog show. You don't think I planned
this vacation around a dog show in the area, do you? Well, what self respecting dog
person wouldn't? The longest part of the trip was getting there and coming back.
Since I was travelling with 3 dogs, it wasn't very practical to fly. My
plan to show the first few days and then vacation, didn't work out too well. The
shows were in Durango, CO about an hour from Mesa Verde. The next time I will plan
to arrive several days before showing. Luge did not do too well the first 2 days in
obedience. And I can't really blame him after riding in the car for 3 days 12+ hours
at a time. He did qualify on the third day so I guess he was just starting to settle
in. It was a very nice show and we had beautiful weather. The day after the shows we
drove to Mesa Verde and camped there for several days. I didn't get the chance to go
down to Cliff Palace because it was so hot and sunny. I did have a chance to walk
around many of the ruins which were on top of the mesas. One of the pictures shows
Cliff Palace. The little speck of colors at the ruin is a crowd of 30 some
tourists.
