Happy 2012!!!!

Hi there everyone,

Happy new years! We hope you all had a safe and wonderful New Years Holiday! We had a great trip up to Ashland Oregon to see the Wraight family. It was extra special 'cause Kris and crew were here to visit for the holidays from the east coast! It was so wonderful to see them!

Though the weekend was short, we got to enjoy some great food and company together. We took Rosie and Lily with us and Roxy saw in the new year visiting with Katie and Russ. Rosie continues to make progress, though be it in small steps, towards getting use to other people. After a while, she was willing to greet Mikes brother Chuck and his wife Terry with a sniff and a lick. She is really trying so hard. We even think Rosie might have a new love interest. She seems to really get a long well with Sir Guinness of Mayhem. They became fast buddies and played tug a lot while we were in Ashland for our visit.

We find that when on the road, Rosie also likes to stick her head out the window of the car while we are traveling down the road and sniff the air. I don't know about for you, but we don't know how she does it as we travel down the road at 65 miles an hour, but she seems to love to do it, at least for a couple minutes at a time.

We hope that 2012 is a wonderful year for all of our friends and family out there.

Happy camping! - Eric and Carol -
