Beautiful dogs George. And as to the "Southern thing", my wife and family are from Arkansas. When we were dating I was in Fayetteville for my first gathering with her sister/brother-in law and Parents. At Easter Dinner, somehow talk came around to my future father-in Law saying something about the "war of Northern aggression". I was confused for a moment and then realized he was speaking of the Civil War. As a boy from New Hampshire I just kept my mouth shut
