Life has found me busy the last few weeks. Erin has been studying rediculously for her first set of boards for med-school, which she took two weeks ago, and in the meantime I packed up all of our stuff in a 24' UHAUL plus another pick-up truck load and 12' trailer. I wonder where in the hell all of this stuff comes from, but we have way more belongings than I thought, especially when you are carrying it all day in 85 degree weather. After her test we went camping in Grand Haven and Ludington for a week, which was a nice change of pace. Now we are living in Grand Rapids, and trying to get settled in. Below is a picture of Coco going nuts over the birds in the quail pen. She has been coming along nicely, and I hope to get a picture of her pointing sometime soon.
Casper has also been doing well. This is at one of the places I train during the summer.
This picture of Freddy is from earlier in the spring, but I haven't posted any of him and have not been on the computer very much since earlier in the spring so I figured I would throw this one up here.
Last week when I brought my last load of stuff to Grand Rapids, I took a break and headed over to Dave TerHaar's. I brought the puppies along and took a few pictures. I really liked this one. This is Jr., who is Freddy's brother. These are both really fun puppies to train and watch. They are both fancy and love birds. Hopefully they will have a good fall. Shep, another 1 year old dog pointing a quail.
Erin and Otty kicking back at the Grand Haven State Park. It wasn't overly warm, especially being rite on the lake, but it was nice to just relax. Otty made herself right at home.

Some grass on the beach at the Ludington State Park.

Erin, Otty, and I on the beach at the Ludington State Park. It was nice and cool with a great sunset later on. Also some neat driftwood, and last, but not least, a gorgeous sunset on the beautiful lakefront of Lake Michigan.
