I had a nice gentleman in our place yesterday sporting a very foreign accent. He was from Queensland and after chatting that our dog's ancestors were from there, I asked if he was here on vacation or biz. I'm doing the Pine Ultra Marathon....huh?...

Well I did a search and didn't find a prior topic. It can be deleted then.
Edit: Then again it's my thread so it can be freely hijacked to your hearts content.

See don't you feel better now? Almost as spiritually refreshing as a brisk hike on an autumn day without any of the tedious up the Rim, down the Rim, up the Rim, down the Rim, repeat.

Perhaps it's the cynic in me but the thread topic seems like an oxymoron... "Alston Neal's Fitness & Health topic..."

You totally glossed over the most important detail. What sort of dog do you two have?

My guess is that it's a Queensland Heeler. That's what the photo looks like.

Yep ours is a Queensland Red Healer and I believe PLC920846723105876492449026 has a crack baby Chihuahua.
Edit: Spelt wrong for your entertainment.

Gee, and here I was being all nice and sending you that spelling alert in a private message...
I was going to say, is she taking patients?

Ahem, when was the last time you sent me a nice pm. On the other hand you should see some of the ones I get.
Not surprisingly they usually have something to do with cats.
