…is that I was googling the home that I grew up in, in Forks, Washington.  As the image came onto my screen I noticed that it is now known as the Cullen House–the residence of the Cullen Vampire Clan.  What a shock.  And to add to the information, my eldest son was named Cullen.  He died in 1999.  I cannot help but think that he reached out from the spirit world and had a hand in this crazy existence. What are the odds??

It looks very much as it was when I was a child there.

…to all of the participants who showed Xolos at the 2010 Xorld Show in Denmark.  I am happy to see such a huge interest in the Xolo on the part of many young breeders and owners.  I was lucky to see a few videos of the Xolo ring that were sent to me by friends and I am so proud of the work that you have done.  The Xolos were so well conditioned and muscled and the handlers were very professional in their presentations.  Keep up the good work…..each and every one of you….

I am a member of your fan club,

Patty
