I would imagine that most will be on their way to NC shortly unless they have been out chasing the sheep already. I heard today the herding site is wonderful and the sheep are beautifully cared for. It's cold though! Hopefully it is going to warm up next week. Here's wishing everyone has a safe trip. I hop you love the show site, and comes home a winner. You can acheive the later by loving your dog no matter what they do at the show. I am not showing anything this year, which is nice in a way, I can smile more and hug people.
