In Extreme Vertical, Gerald Setty & Reed, only 11 months old, came out of no where to give the veterans, Thunder and Bella, a battle for 1st Place.  All three dogs grabbed 6' 4" then missed 6' 6".  The height was dropped down to 6' 5" where Thunder and Bella both grabbed but Reed was just wore out from jumping every two inches from 5', grabbing the bumper every time on her first try - impressive!  The height was raise to 6' 7" where Thunder and Bella both missed then dropped down to 6' 6".  Thunder grabbed 6' 6" but Bella missed.  Thunder won 1st Place EV!!
 
Perhaps the best part of the event was the BBQ at the hotel Saturday night.  Dave Nash slaved over the BBQ for several hours producing some of the best chicken ever tasted.  We had several salads, desserts, and the Ho Ho Cake made an appearance only to be kidnapped by Dave & Cathie.  It ended early, but a great time was had by all.
