Thanks everyone. Yes there are a few things that got lost in transmission, but I'll get it back up. The migration is hopefully the beginning of some much needed upgrades. It took a couple of months just to get this done so I can't promise I'll be speedy.

I'm glad everyone still enjoys this place! Jaime and I love to hear it. Bear too!  ;)

got to love those big paws, they stand up for their rights in the costume area!

If anyone knew how tormented he is by Jaime they'd realize why he fought the costume.  ;D

Group Discussions & Photos / Bear & Raito playing in the wilderness
« on: September 23, 2007, 01:00:33 am »
This weekend we took Bear up to my aunt & uncle's home in the mountains. We met my cousin Michelle and her dog Raito (now a BPO member) up there too. The dogs & the humans had a great time. Bear played with Raito and bugged the tiny Bassett Hound named Emma. Here are a few pics of the day.

That was my buddy he was sleeping with after his all nighter. We decided it was better to sleep on the ground than to pack in tents. It wasn't as comfortable as I had hoped, that was certain. :)

Newfoundland Pictures / Bear's Backpacking Trip 2007
« on: August 20, 2007, 07:48:35 pm »
Bear went with us again backpacking thru the Kaiser Wilderness. He had a blast. We got to the trail head at about 1 in the morning and got to our destination at 4. Hiking thru the night made it a breeze for him as there was no sun beating down on him. Most of us were pretty beat by the time we got there and crashed out but one of my buddies wanted to get his fishing on. Bear, never one to miss a trip for fishing decided to join the all nighter. Of course by the time I woke up and went fishing, Bear had had enough. He ate his breakfast and caught some z z z's. By the time I got back he was ready to go. He offered again to carry some of my stuff - what a great dog! That night, he was so hungry he had eaten all of his dinner and his next day's breakfast. Poor guy. He didn't miss breakfast though! I did. :)

I appologize for that everyone. We spent almost 6 hours today trying to isolate the problem and hopefully it worked.

Thanks for your patience.
