My folks live in a resort community that has a drive in theater abandon for decades, the old screen getting more and more beat up as each season passed. Though land in the area sky rocketed this prime real estate was never offered for sale and now some 30 plus years after it closed....they reopened it just a few weeks ago. The traffic to get in was backup for miles...... Maybe we've just become blase' about dog shows and if we have less choices particularly in the all breed circuit, going to them will mean that much more.
