Welcome to the group!
We have some people coming to our Rally in June at Winchester Bay who have Bernese Mountain dogs. They might argue with you about who is more dumb.
If you get a chance, you might want to come on down for the rally. The park we are staying in is right next door to the entrance to the dunes. There is a county park across the road from our park where they will let you drive your bikes right into your campsite. Our park won't allow that, but you could come down with or without your toys and meet a big group of HL people, a lot of whom are from WA.
