Niagara on the Lake

[lynzy420]

Oh I'm not available until after October 5th, my weekends are being spent on my new house! So sorry I will miss meeting you! However, I wouldn't be able to bring my two girls anyway it would be hard to drag Miss Mini's plastic bubble out of the house and over the bridge lol....Miss Mia is deaf and I am not comfortable yet taking her places shes not familliar with, leash or not...my fear is her getting away from me...however; I am always available for a good long walk, dinner, drinks, lunch etc.....It would be great, maybe even msyorktown could join us????!!!

Have a good time this weekend I hope the weather holds out!

Lynzy are you in upstate NY? What do you use to get across the bridge, I almost thought I would have to postpone our trip, late Monday night I realized our passports expired, at that point it was to late to get the enhanced drivers lic so I had to get an expedited passport. It took the best part of two days since I had to drive back and forth to Detroit and wait for several hours each day. And ouch it was $110.00 for each passport plus 60 each for expedite fees, $340.00 total, plus $20.00 in Detroit parking fees and who knows how much in gas, just to drive into Canada.

I can't wait to meet you Gail, I been telling Lola she is going to meet a new boyfriend so she is excited to. I packed all her gear, she even has the prettiest new wine label harness dress for the trip, plus her life vest, various toys, leashes, food, treats, stroller, car seat, bed, yikes there is hardly room for our stuff. Will you be bringing you video camera?

I am literally walking distance or a five minute drive so I have an enhanced license, most times I don't even have to show my license, I think they know me or my plate...hehehe....I have heard many people go through what you did, just f.y.i you are lucky you were able to get that taken care of so quickly...you could have gotten over but you wouldn't have been able to get back

Donna, your packing list is incredible, you make me feel like a bad momma!

I really hope you guys have a great time!

I;m excited too It is forecasted to be a sunny Sunday; and 23 degress yeah! Oh yes that is about 72 deg Fahrenheit.

I almost always travel with video camera, Dave will have his super duper Nikon slr, his camera bag weighs a ton!

I haven't packed for Razzle yet, but life jacket ditto, all weather coat ditto, extra hair bands, small grooming kit (and yes I'll put in the clippers, and some other grooming things I pack also some Sham Wow's they are great to mop up extra water from the coat. Our water toy bag lives in the car too. Extra leash and halter, don't forget an extra for yours,aawh I see you have. Remember your emergency kit too!. I am all out of Bendryl do you have some in your kit? Maybe I pack portable grooming table.
I'm thinking I might pack portable generator, and hair dryer. What do you think? Will we be able to go back to your room, to blowdry the pups, if it turns chilly out? If not we'll throw in the portable generator and hair dryer.

Do you want me to pack a sample kit for Isle of Dogs, or ISB? In the IOD I'm almost out of the #51, was going to get some at a show next wkend. But I have PEK which is fabulous. I have a minkoil I adore. Let me know, what product lines(s) you haven't tried and I'd be happy to pack a little sampler pack for you,that is if I have them. I'm going to give you some chrome Coat Conditioner, which is quickly coming up on my most fav list of conditioners, that stuff is amazing, and I think would work well with your gal's coat.

I don't think we shall need sunscreen for the pups, but I always travel with a bottle in the pups water bag.

I can't believe I didn't tell you but, Razzle and Magic were actually in an official dock jumping competition last Sunday. And you won't believe this, but I had bought a new Chuck it toy, on sale no less, I thought for sure it was water toy as most of their toys are, well I do the first toss in the water, and Magic god bless him, balks for the first time in a long time to jump. There I am trying to get him to jump off the dock, and saying See your toy, see your toy! Mommy wants you to get that TOY. Then I look and I really look, no NO NO sign of the toy! LMAO. The audience is yelling at me the TOY SANK..... How embarassing. First rule, have a toy that floats. So anyhow it was the shortest life of a toy we have had in our household, ummmm 48 hrs maybe. Razzle got into the finals as well in his division! ..... 3feet 6 " can you believe it???

Anyhow if you have the time drop me a line here, but we will speak Sat late day anyway, to firm up Sunday's plans.

Have fun on your trip! Make sure to take lots of pictures and share them when you get back
