Whisperwind On A Carousel

Ch Whisperwind On A Carousel or Peter to his friends, was the star of one mine and Gene's first major dates. A nice, quite evening watching TV turned into an event. Much to our delight, "The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show" came on. We met mid-Dec. and our "first date" was Jan. 10. So by the second Monday in Feb., we were still learning things about each other.
That night, we discovered we had both spent lots of childhood hours pouring over those slick, color pages in "Volume D" of World Book Encyclopedia. The following Feb. found Gene in the country with me and no cable TV since. When the annual blurb naming the new champion comes on TV, you'll find us glancing over at each other with a smile in rememberance of a very special evening. (^^+v)

LINK "The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show" is a two-day event held on the second Monday and Tuesday in Feb. in New York City. Second oldest U.S. sporting event held continuously. Only the Kentucky Derby is older.
