Mike, there is a bird dog parade at the Fest. Lots of little people in dog suits!

Friday I should have on my English Setter Hawaiian shirt. Maybe I’ll join in?

Make sure you say hi to him Mike, I believe he's shot at the Rock before with or without me. Great guy. He's only one of the dozen or so Ryman setter breeders in the US. Thornplum Kennels in Hancock, NY.

Andy, if he wanders by, he’ll get good treatment, I promise.

Andy, it appears our booth is directly across from the Ryman Setter group.

Thank you Garry! I just was just texting him. He said he's good for tickets and he'll join because I told him to. Now only if my wife would listen to my recommendations! He's a Maine grouse hunter and I'm sure you'll see him in a Parker soon.

I'll be walking my Gordon in the parade on Friday, attending some of the presentations, checking out the vendors, sampling arena food. It's got so many seminars you need at least two days to catch all of the ones of interest, but I've only taken in Fridays at each that I've been to--next time it's up in Omaha I'll get in multiple days.

I hope you can wander by with your Gordon. There are several members who have Gordon’s, too. Check out some of my threads in the hunting section to see some photos.

BTW, the Hawaiian shirts arrived and my wife and I will be wearing them on Hawaiian shirt Friday.

Look forward to seeing those!

Just how widespread is that Hawaiian shirt Friday going to reach?
