Since I signed Kia up for the competition, we have to be there by 9:30 a.m. Andy and I are not morning people.

It's over an hour and a half drive and that's if the weather and traffic behave.

So we just figured it'd be easier to stay the night. We only booked a room for Friday night. We'll be heading home after the Mutt Show.

We're staying at the Radisson which is connected to the convention center.
