Ultimate Air Dogs - Ohio - Nov 22-23/08


Nov 22-23/08, we were off to Cleveland, OH to our first Ultimate Air Dogs event - what a great weekend! Cath & I, Lenny, Chic and Pip - road trip!!


We had an awesome weekend - Lenny came 1st in Master division Finals with a 22' 7" jump!!! We were given free toys when we registered, and one of them was a Jolly Ball - Lenny LOVES that thing! So we switched frsual newfie tennll to the new jolly ball and, I guess it paid off!!!

Entertainer with his dogs in the demonstration area

This little guy climbed his way up right from the bottom!


On the way home Sun night, we decided to stop off in Niagra Falls to see the Festival of Lights - I'm glad we stopped! It was beautiful! I can't remember the last time I was in Niagra Falls . . . . the main part of downtown sure has changed . . . . very glittery & tourist trap looking!! But, very impressive!! It was a really nice detour.

Main Strip:


Festival of Lights





Skylon Tower & Casino




The Falls lighted - quite specatcular!

Amazing news about Lenny!! Way to go!!!

All that glitz looks odd to me now! The only light display I get is from the Northern Lights & even they've been in hiding this winter!

Sounds like a great trip all round :)
