Geesh! I so wish I could go!!!! If I had known about this sooner Tori and I might have taken off for a super long drive for the weekend. Are you going, Pat? Shame on you for not posting this sooner!

I love it up your way. I think it is so pretty. I really do wish I could go.

Sorry, Robin. Freedom (Sandi) just sent me a pm about this a couple days ago & I e-mailed the organizer. Thought there might be a few Easterners out & about, but right off hand, I don't know of anyone from PT. I told her I would post it, just in case.
To be honest, I'm not sure how this is going to go. It looks like a member of a husky "play group" is trying to organize something bigger. If the weather is good, we'll go. But it's 1 1/2 hr. drive each way for us, so if its crummy out, we'll just hunker down.
This would be a long drive for you - it took me 15 hrs. to travel with dogs. (should be more like a 11 hr. drive without)...but you are welcome anytime!

Oh good, so I guess I should keep forwarding things to you! He he. I thought that would be of interest! My bichons would be "appetizers," so I won't get up that way. Enjoy!

Ah, the link won't work for me!!!
