I went to the
Oregon Rats Rendezvous
April 1, 2000
"Ma took Priscilla and me to the Oregon Rats Rendezvous which was at the Champeog State Park in Oregon, just south of Portland. Like Cilla said the weather was so nice, it could not have been better.
Ma entered me in the male six month to one year conformation class. There were only two of us, but I got first place. Ma was so proud of me. I only got two ribbons, because Ma didn't put me in any of the fun matches, but I got a blue ribbon and Cilla only got a red hahaha!!! She always thinks she's so smart and makes fun of me and calls me goodie two shoes.
We had so much fun there. Julia Kleutsch of Seattle and Michella Hamblet of Portland put on the show. Julia did the judging. She not only judged us but in some of the classes she also told the audience why she placed them the way she did. So it was very educational to Ma and the other Rat parents.
I can't wait to go again, but Ma says I have to wait a WHOLE year before we go there again, but she said she'll probably take Sammy and me to the Seattle Rat Reign in July.
My head is still spinning from all the fun." ----Rikki
