Hope to see you all there!!!! :D
 
I WILL be there! I'm not able to bring Marshall's checkbook though cause Kristy has it--dang it! Carol and I are driving up and staying at the gnome motel. I'm hoping to bring Sandi along as well! Really looking forward to it, as I'll be getting a new girlie from Kristy!!!! AND I'm going to show Bronwyn! Can't wait for the experience! I also plan on bringing a couple pans of my turtle brownies and guacamole of course for all the margarita drinking after the show LOL!
 
No, the chins do not have to have a pedigree to be shown. You can sign your chinnie up at the door. I'm not very experienced but I can help people groom. I have a chinnie comb I won at last year's show and I had the wonderful Schultz girls show this old lady how to groom.

Be there or be square!!!

Also, I saw no evidence of gnomes at the Gnome Hotel.

Maybe Becky or Tunes or Kristy will have a pale pink eyed beige for me by then.

Ha Laurie, you know I will be there! What can I bring? And what the heck is a gnome motel?!? :eek: Sounds spooky, you know I'm a big sissy!

Carol... you must have lost it. There are tons of gnomes at the Gnome Hotel! By the pool there's a huge wall mural filled with gnomes!

I should be there again this year! Since I'm in Appleton I won't stay over night though.

And as always I'll bring a basket or two for the raffle :))
 
I can't wait for the show...I'll be heading to Ryersons in the next couple of weeks and can deliver dust to the show. PM for more info.
 
Oh! I'd love to get dust again from you! I'll have to see what I have left and what I think I'll need, will you have a max number of bags per person?
 
Will anybody be there with large amounts of dust? Shoots or Ryerson's maybe? I'd like to get stocked up again so would be looking at 10-15 bags.
 
I'm so jealous, this sounds like such a wonderful time............too bad I am 16 hours away! Dang the east coast!!
 
I am so bummed! I was really looking forward to going to this show but it is of course on the one and only weekend that I have plans already in October!
 
Michelle - That's my usual travel time to a show. If I go to Ohio or Auburn, it's 16 and sometimes more depending on the nightmarish traffic by Chicago. Don't let a few hours travel time stop you!

Thankfully, it's only about 11 to this one for me. I get a bit less numb butt time from the drive.
 
I wonder if I can beg Deb to come to this one this year, she didn't come last year. Last year I went down with Tawana... But if Deb would go then we'd probably stay in the gnome hotel.
 
:zipped1: Ok not going to talk about my 3 hour drive, but very happy to go to my first show :D!
