			Okay, we all have our biases, but there's nothing as cute as a Gordon puppy.  Miss Ruby will have her hands full mentoring that little rascal.

			Coming home from a SD pheasant trip one year in a late November snowstorm we counted 13 tractor trailers off the highway before we were smart enough to get off and take a state highway.  What a mess...the hunting was good though.
