April 2015 So Cal all topic, BS thread

April fools So Cal!

Didn't see an all topic thread for April yet, so I decided to make one to help Sean out. Hope everyone has a great April. I know I will. In 5 days I turn 57 years young.

Sorry to hear the bad news Trey, I hope they find the culprit, but I know the odds of that are slim.

Back at the hotel:

Took the trailer full of dog goodies down to OC this morning, and had a small crew assist in the unloading of the trailer and the back of my truck - full of stuff.

We got tables set up, along with the assembly of most of the display racks, so tomorrow morning we will begin stocking the "store", and be ready for Friday morning at 0800, when the public arrives.

We will have as many as 20-30 thousand people pass by, and we have had even more in previous years, so maybe if the girls (our wholesale buyers) have selected some unique "must-haves", we may end up with a worthwhile fund-raiser for the rescue. Even if sales aren't the best, we will have succeeded in exposing them to the possibility of rescuing a very family-oriented breed of dog. That's our real mission.

Good luck with the store, Pop. For an excellent cause, for sure.
