Brian West is traveling through Canada and down to Minnesota from British Columbia. He will be providing many of the photos during his trip to the field trial for us. Here are a few photos as we traveled across the prairie region - SK, ND, and MN.  The grain elevators are disappearing giants, never to be seen again. These were taken on Saturday by Brian.

Photos also are coming in from Julie Cole of California.

We mourn the passing of Jim Nicholes in 2011
“Mr. Chesapeake”

That was the name Ben Robertson gave Jim years ago. As far as his friends and acquaintances are concerned that is true. He loved his family, his friends, and his dogs. Jim was a long-time member of the American Chesapeake Club, dedicated trainer of many fine dogs, and participant in numerous ACC Field Trial Specialties.

On behalf of Janis Nicholes and Jim’s many friends
in the Northern California Retriever Club
