Missed this thread until this morning, don't know how!!! I am excited that Kansas City has been picked. (I live about 2.5 hours away) As others have said most of the things to do will probably be in Missouri. The airport is small in comparison to many of the other international airports in the US. It has 3 terminals, so you basically get off the plane walk 20 steps to get out of the secure area and another 10-20 yards to get your luggage and then out the doors that are right there.
I flew this summer from MCI to ONT, LAX (prefer the ONT airport!) and Denver. All on dog business. I was told about express jet by scrapindee and just loved the experience. They were very reasonable rates, served food, allowed dogs ($50 for in cabin)

Tornados are really not a problem. They do not strike the whole state like a hurricane would. They are very spotty and usually just during the spring. We almost always have warning.

There are many great museums in the KC area. Truman Library and Steamboat Arabia, but I don't know how dog friendly. There is a new shopping area on the east side of KC not too far from Overland Park. It is called the Legends. It is an outdoor mall, so if it is very hot you may want to do one of the indoor malls.

By the way, I plan on being there with at least on Biewer for those of you that would like to see and experience one of these wonderful yorkies.

So excited to meet some of you. The YTers I have met so far have been SUPER!!!

I asked hubby and he said well where is it? I told him and he was like yeah right. So I guess that's a no. But he also said no to getting another furbaby, that changed quickly. So from here till then I'll be doing lots of begging.

I am not sure how much traveling (even to nearby locations) Pam will be doing in the next year. She has a couple of major surgeries and rehab waiting for her in the next year. This is the reason she needs to find her babies homes soon. She will not be able to take care of them for awhile after the surgeries. Of course I will help her out all I can, but the Fancy Creek bridge is now closed and the detour adds 15 more minutes to get to her home.
