Sounds like a great day. Too bad people do not realize how important these events are to learn. Those that participate really benefit.
 
Great pics Nicole...
Happy the last picture Nicole (Randy's girl was named after you) looks good for I think we can all agree I look like hum... not sure, but it is scaring the crap out of me.
LOL
 
Thanks for making me look a second time Christiane - yep that is a scary face you are making for the camera...no one would guess how much you loved on that chinchilla cuz you look like you are taking her home to eat her! :)
 
I think that chin loved Christiane just as much as she loved her! I couldn't believe how she just sat on her shoulder all that time and didn't even attempt to budge!

It would have been really nice to have more people in attendance, but I am so thankful that the people who did attend were there to learn! And that we did!!!

I know!!! :rofl:

Rhonda, She is such a sweet girl. I am happy I took her!

R-BS, it is sad that not as many show up to the shindings. It is so worth it to sit and learn from the experiences breeders even the less experienced. The sharing if views and opinions. AND a great opportunity to see everyone in a period of the year where shows are scarces. I think it is nice to touch base with the breeders, I know I need my fix in the summer and the Shinding is it for me. :)
 
I know this is totally off the subject and im sorry but Nicole, I love your signature! There is a lot of truth to that.
 
Pictures are really nice Nicole! Wish I could be there. It's hard when you work only weekends and only get 4 weekends a year for vacation. Next year I'm hoping to go. May have to fly though.

Road trip next year Crissy?!!
 
I had a customer tell me she was so excited to go to the Shindig because she was finally going to be around people who would not look at her weird and act like she was crazy when she told them about her chinchillas.
