Pre-Road Trip Flutters!

Anyone else ever get fluttery ~ a mixture between excited and nervous - before road trips?


As most know - Kiara, my dad, and I are taking a road trip to Ohio/MI.

We're heading out at around 2 today. The first few days we'll be camping on a beautiful lake in Ohio. We'll be attending the PawzFest in Upper Sandusky on the 21st, quite a few PT'ers are going.

After that, we're heading to Michigan to stay with my aunt and her family, which includes a newbie, a Collie/Shepherd mix puppy! She is the one who came down here not too long ago, the one who had RB Teala. While in MI we're meeting up with Ramanth & K9Krazee.

The day after the MI meeting is the big Findlay meeting!

And on Memorial Day we'll be meeting up with Johanna & Kristen at a dog park, where Kiki will get to play with her favoritest pup Riley, and I will get to smooch all over Jonah! Be jealous ladies! :p

2 weeks, away from home, away from work........ -happy sigh-

My stomach has a million butterflies in it thinking I've forgotten to pack something. But then again, I think, as long as I have my camera and my dog I'm all set, huh?? *edit - Kiara wanted to remind me, that her flippy and tennis balls should be included in this.*

I am going to miss Simba and Nala so much. :( I cried last night because they can't come. I don't think Simba would have much fun anymore anyways, and Nala isn't too good on car trips, although she did it before. We just didn't want to bother my aunt with too many dogs.

So... hoping for a safe, safe, FUN trip! Can't wait to meet and see so many of you again!

Just wanted to wish you a safe trip!!
I'm sure you are going to have TONS of fun!!!

I hope you have tons of fun!! Take lots of pictures :D

WHERE are you "camping in Ohio" ??

And WHO are you going to be "checking in" with ... or are you packing
a 'puter along with you to check in on your own?
We'd like to know you all "Safe & Sound" each night.

Ask Dad to Drive Safely & Be Careful!

Keep us posted along the way!

I wondered where in Ohio you were camping also! Kay, you have my number...so, I am happy to post any update you want to. I generally don't take the 'puter home during the week, but, can post the update first thing the next morning!!!

Happy Trails!

We're camping at the Indian Lake State Park. :)

We're bringing the lap top, hopefully going to be able to check in at the campground - supposedly they have wireless internet.

Gee, I see Ohio is going to be extra rainy for us - according to weather.com. Getting us ready for hurricane season?

I just love road trips...I am usually just excited...figure what I forget I can buy, just make sure you have flashlights, something to cook on, propane, food, some benadryl for Kiara if she needs it, her paperwork and hey whatever else you can buy if you forget.

You will have a great time I can't wait to see pictures!

I hear ya Kay, I just LOVE road trips but I get extrememly nervous when I have to leave any of my critters behind, especially any dogs. Heck I'm not leaving until 8-9 days from now & I'm already nervous, thinking I'll forget to tell my pet/house sitter/friend some details, or that I forgot something, or that I will miss my other animals, etc...
But then again I am VERY excited.

I know everything will be just fine Kay, for you, me & everyone else! We will all do just fine, be happy & safe.
Can't wait to see ya soon!

I forgot to say, my vet recommended benadryl for me to bring camping, we take the dogs out camping all the time and bubba gets car sick and its good to have in case of a bee sting.

Have a safe trip!! Take lots of photos! (Like I needed to tell you that... it's like telling the Pope to make sure he prays a lot!)

When are you ever going to come up in the Maryland direction? I'd love for you to meet my Samantha and Aidan too!

Safe travels, Kay! I can't wait to meet you and Ki!!!

Have a safe trip!!! See ya soon! :)

Have a safe and fun trip, Kay! :) Dont' forget to take lots of pics! :)

I know you'll come back with great pictures, and, that you'll have fun! :) I totally get butterflies before a road trip, or a flight or anything. I leave tomorrow morning, driving to Texas. I'm nervous, too. It's more than just a week or two vacation, of course, so, I'm nervous about the hugeness of what I'm doing. But, even on weekend trips, I get stomach twitters. Be safe and HAVE FUN! :)

Have Fun on your trip!

P.S.Angie(pitc9) i click on that feed the animals website love it i will have to remember that :)
