Reid, How's the training of your dogs to ski going? If Squiggy can do it, they could too!!

HW, You sure have been helpful!! Besides the C and the K problem, I think you even corrected me on a Dreamsicle / Creamsicle issue! I wouldn't know what to do without your help! Thanks. To make it worse, I've talked about Twiggy before.

No, No -- I think Pete's right... Yea, I think it was "Lenny and Twiggy" on that old show "Lavern and Sherry!"
Love those old shows.
Anybody remember Mork and Cindy starring Robert Williams?

Reruns? Not the first time around? I went to your profile to see when you were born but you didn't list it. So you must be young.

Wow jbear! I went to 87BFN's profile to chek the "age" thing after you said that and for a minute I was thinking 87BFN was really, really, really , really, really ...

...really old because I looked at the wrong line.

I was mistakenly looking at number of posts "1653!"

And yet another post that I completely missed, and this one was asked directly to me! I should be punished. I guess since I'm such a crappy skier I don't venture to this Forum like I should.

Back to the question at hand Pete, I guess I'm just not as good a dad as I thought I was. Judging by these picts it sure looks like they're anticipating something and have given me all the signs which I've obviously missed until now. Thanks for opening my eyes.   





In reality, I'm confident Skipper (female)would take to and stay on one the very old style (what were they called, aquaplaner?) boards. Boaty on the other hand won't stay on anything unless I'm on it to. Tried pulling him in the tube real close behind a jetski and he'd have nothing to do with that and ended up with front paws on the 'ski and back legs in the tube. Missed Kodak moment. Pretty bad case of separation anxiety. This summer may be the year for Skipper, though.

Pete, you're on to something, as I didn't think about that. As much as they love to ride on jetskis and float on the rafts, I don't think this would be problem.

And HW, the Chi-town hound has definitely put us to the point of no return.

Well I know these two dogs love to spend time in the boat...could barely get into the '80 when Boaty and Skipper were around during our August visit. They just loved sitting in the boat while it was tied to the dock.

At least they do have good taste.

John, did you have Twinkies in your boat? That might explain it. I hear they like twinkies. At least that's what CQ told me.

I didn't see any, but reid sure did have lots of peanut butter on the dock, and no bread...

I am not sure what treat Reid put in the boat but could not get them dogs out. Was ok tho, never used any of my gas all week. The dogs were content at the dock.

The visual of CQ and Twinkies in the same sentence is hard to take.
