Tonks and Luna's Roadtrip to Minnesota

hey all;

we're finally here! I took a ton of photos driving from Atlanta to Minnesota. I'll edit and upload either later tonight or tomorrow. But I just wanted to post and say we're here, and to thank Baley, Baxter, Murphy, Heart, Pearl and Cosmo (and their mommies) for making Tonks and Luna feel so welcome at their homes. Boy did the girls have some fun over the last 3 days! And with any luck, tomorrow we'll get to see Chewie, Bond and maybe even Martha!

For now, here's a photo from today- the girls are loving the snowy wilderness that is our temporary home in Minnesota!

Sounds like a great adventure for all! Glad you are there safe
Super...and I can't wait to see the trip up pictures!! :clappurple:
Great photo! Glad you made it safely.
I am so happy to see you made it. With the terrble weather you had to travel though. I'm glad all is well.
So glad to hear that you made it safe and sound!! We truly enjoyed having you! That is a great pic--from stormy and windy--to snowy and cold LOL! Can't wait to see the pics of your travels!
How on earth do you get them to pose so perfectly???
Great picture! Glad you made it safe and sound!

Sit-Stay; they are masters of it! Wait until you see the one of them doing it on a fallen tree I took today!
Love the pic Allison! Hope you're all having a blast!!!
Tonks and Luna are loving Minnesota! In fact, I spent quite a bit of time picking bits of Minnesota out of their coats; why, hello thistles and burrs. :evil: Don't even get me started on the mud. At this point, you can hardly tell I groomed them for this trip.

So; another photo of the girls enjoying the wilderness before I back track and post some photos from our drive up:



And now some photos of Murphy, Baley & Baxter being the perfect hosts from our visit with sheepiezone in Nashville:















and finally one with me, Baley, Baxter, Tonks & Luna:

...more photos to come. I have hundreds to sort through, and I'll post them as I get them edited!
Looks like fun was had...and you caught a window of nice weather!!

Here we don't have as many burrs and weed stuff right close - I kill them off! Self defense of course. Not good for the sheep wool either.

Good luck today! :clappurple:


BUM SHOT!!!! :yay: :yay: :yay: :yay:


How did the girls do with Murphy? I'm sure meeting Murphy and soon Bond will only kick your puppy desire into high gear!
I was waiting for David to comment on the Bum Shot!!! :lol: Anyway, Glad you arrived safely and hope your therapy goes well :) LOVE LOVE LOVE the pictures. :hearts: Take care and keep us posted.

Ha Ha David--we commented that the bum shot was for you! The girls were great with Murphy! :D

Oh my puppy desire has been in high gear for a couple of months now; my need is to bring my husband Adam over to the Dark Side. He hasn't gotten to meet Bond yet, but I think Murphy tried his very best to work his magic on Adam, and to a certain degree, succeeded! I just need to keep exposing Adam to puppies until he can't stand it anymore. :twisted:
Love the photos! Awwww wish I was there
I had a chance today to finish up editing some more photos between therapy sessions. These are the last of the photos from our drive; hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to edit and upload the photos from our visit to The Paw with Chewie, Bond, and Martha!


Baxter, Luna, Tonks & Adam in Nashville



Baley and Tonks gossiping over the fence:



Tonks, Luna, Baley, and their uprights:



Baley:


On to St. Louis where we stopped off to visit with Heart! And even though Pearl and Cosmo were originally hanging out in a different room, they insisted on joining the party. Tonks was quite smitten with Cosmo! :hearts:

Lovely lovely pictures.
I love how you can make a trip from GA to MN and fill it with sheepdogs at every point!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Great pictures of Karen's gang and then Val's! :hearts:

Can't wait to see how the pictures from Monday turned out. I snapped a few, but I mostly was on poop detail (after all, Allison has the way better camera!) and mine are kind of long distance. :wink:

Allison--love all your pics of the Nashville stop! Your camera is awesome and you really got some great shots!

This one is really a great picture--even sweet Pearl joined the party!! How fun! :D

Can't wait to see the pictures with Dawn's crew!
Allison and Adam~~What a fun time we all had when you came to visit!!! I sure hope you are planning a stop over on your return visit. Joey is so excited about Plum joining the next Sheepieparty!!! And, Adam needs his hat~~it is waiting for him on the couch table in the front room!!

Thanks for taking a couple of great pics of the LOO pack!!!!!

Hope your therapy is helping!! Can't wait to see the PAWS pics too~~

What I noticed about the first pictures is not the bum, but the t-shirt and jeans...in March. I would be in Heaven
What fun stops you had! Those are great pictures!

Bond is a growing WEED! He just hit 49 tonight...so he passed Gabby the Samoyed up by 0.6 lb today! 8O
He did really well in class though - hoping I have another great team mate. :plead:

LeAnne and Keith are likely not coming this year...so no Martha. :( :( Harry will be crushed.

We're supposed to go back to the Paw this coming Monday for another class (if I'm not too worn out from my physical therapy). So I'll see what I can do!!!!! :wink:


slowly but surely getting to edit more photos....
I love love love all the photos! I cannot wait for sheepiepolooza!

Dave and Kim we have to have you two, well, you five, there!
Great shots of such adorable subjects, Allison. :wag: You always take the best pictures!! :clappurple: I have to ask, though, that fabulous group shot at The Paw - how many shots did you take to get one where they were all looking in the right direction? :lol:

Even after mine are posed and facing me, they'll look at anything to keep from looking at the photographer. :twisted:

Without looking back at the posts, I think Allison said it was 6 shots. And that was because 4.5 month old Bond was looking at me off to the side of the photo.....he's just getting good at sit/stays, so I was staying close to correct/fix him if he moved! 8) 8)
The other 4 were good in all of them :D
Y'all are just GOOD. :lol:
