We’d only had our tent for three months before the zips started to break. We tried to fix them like the instructions said, which worked for a few days and then they broke again. So eventually we took it to a camping store for a replacement. We get the replacement, drive to camp and start setting up… only to find they’ve given us the wrong poles and the fly has a rip in it. So we went back to get it replaced. All seems in order this time – until we unfolded the poles and found one of them was broken. So now we have to get another replacement. Again.
The good thing is bad times don’t last forever. Then again, neither do good times. So I try to make the most of the good times while I have them. When I last posted, we’d had rude caravan park owners, rough nights sleeping in the van, and disorganised shows messing with us. But right now, things are looking up. (Apart from the broken tent.)
We did the Mt Isa Show on Friday and Saturday, which was awesome. The crowd loved us, we had perfect weather, the organisers did what they were meant to do (organise!), and the dogs all performed at their best.

Two days and six performances later, we’re all pretty tired. Except Freya, who never gets tired. She did all six performances and walked around the show and met people, then getting a big game of fetch at the end of the day. But even on Saturday night, she was still wanting to play at 10pm, and then throwing a hissy fit when Chantel wouldn’t let her run around! And then as usual, on Sunday morning she woke up at 7am wanting to go out and play again. She has more energy than any puppy I’ve ever seen!
You have a great attitude Jasmine. Certainly life is full of ups n downs, sometimes more downs than ups, but the downs help us to build strong characters that don't quit just because it's challenging. So looking forward to looking at the photos on fb too.
