Sue, did Kevin tell you the story where he had to wake up 4am and walk barefoot in the snow and carry these by sled dog to the San Jose Airport?

Well I am sure that is the toned down version
LOL!! I talked to Kevin the day he prepared them for shipment...all he said is that his hands were REALLY COLD!! I was amazed to see how well the bags were tied considering he likely couldn't feel his fingers with them being cold and wet!! I was amazed to hear some parts of CA got snow!!! It happened once that I remember when I lived down south.

Today they are all doing wonderfully!! Looking for food!!! I'll cook up some Pearl Barley and garlic for them later today and offer a wee bit.

The shiro is white again. Her shipping stress appearance is all gone now. She's looking great!!! I love this Kohaku!!! She has the most perfectly placed lipstick. No red upward on the mouth and placed just right from side to side. When she grows big she's going to be a knock out!!! When you look at the bodies sideways through the Q-tank window there is good rise at the spine and great depth to the bodies. They will grow on well!!! 2 years they'll be ready for the show world!!

Sue
