Cold front moving in for the weekend and snow in the forecast - so my sister told me. To which I told her to get rid of it or I wasn't coming out LOL! But I'll be bringing a warm jacket for sure! It'll be gettting chilly in Colorado next week -----Original Message----- From: Stormy Hope <stormy435@xxxxxxxxx> To: ELG440 <ELG440@xxxxxxx> Cc: Showgsd-l <Showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tue, Oct 2, 2012 2:21 am Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Preparing for the national LOL! I was just looking at the pictures of the Dobe National. On their BIG night, when the top 20 Dobes vie for the Big Prize, all the women wear evening dresses (a couple of dressy dresses,but mostly gowns) and the men in black suits. I was imagining our BOB class at the National with outfits like that and started giggling. PlentyPretty told me to stop. Now THAT would be interesting packing... But I'll be bringing a warm jacket for sure! It'll be gettting chilly in Colorado next week. Stormy On Oct 1, 2012, at 5:19 PM, ELG440@xxxxxxx wrote: > > > > In a message dated 10/1/12 5:17:50 P.M.
