Pearls … Lessons learned by experience
I haven’t written on the blog for a while and Jason has done a fantastic job summarizing all the stuff. Between the growth of our marketing business and getting Moxie, I’ve been so busy keeping my head on mostly straight, I’ve probably missed a ton of pearls in the chaos.
Choice of Discs…The Dilemma
Choice of discs has been a new point of contention in the DragonDogs house. When we first started playing disc, there was only Lilli – and she has a VERY hard bite.

Sometimes being that ambitious gets me fantastic results. Other times it gives me an opportunity be hard on myself. You say…“You got 3 out of 4 Q’s in your first trial…you should be stoked!”.
