working on GPC Marketplace

I am trying to add a marketplace for GPC Community. Have patience as I tinker around with this. I hope each of you can have items you want to sell to others with similar interests available here on GPC soon i.e. well before Christmas. Problem is no one has an exact widget that lets each person have their own store if they want, but can use a central checkout already set up for their use. I am seeing now if Cartfly can be used like this or even close.

Feast of St Francis of Assisi

Sunday, October 4 is Feast of St Francis of Assisi day. I am offering his prayer of peace, although he likely did not do the prayer, it is universally attributed to him.

French National in Argeles-Gazost

The French National in a few weeks looks so very good this year. Great judges that should be very attractive. I wonder if the foreign entry (non-French) might be a record this year. I have received many emails already about many of you going and taking dogs.

Let us know here in the notes area who is going with what dogs and bitches so we can cheer for you. I think the dogs and bitches I have seen here on GPC are very good and will be a real factor maybe in this years show.

Good

Still need pictures for volume III of Great Pyrenees Pictorial History

Thanks for the response to last call for pictures. I can still use a few more as I finish volume III.

Update on GPC

Here we are at years end.  GPC has been incredable thanks to the most unique, diversified group of people I have ever encountered. Thank you all so much for enriching all out lives.

We have had over 200 people join in just a few months.  We have now almost 2300 pictures and about 90 videos available.  Those alone are an education. We see our dogs in places I had no idea about and they are such beautiful dogs with such special people, its wonderful. I think Monsieur Senac-Lagrange would
