Sheila,
   
  Do you think it makes any difference when they sell the gas. What difference 
does it make?? I could never figure that one out. I always thought 
environmentalist worked for the oil companies. Why sell 30 gallons of gas for 
30 dollars when yon can sell 10 gallons for 30 dollars. Less cost to produce 
the 10 gallons much more profit.
   
  If I knew I could sell my gas on Monday then I would close my doors on 
Tuesday and save the overhead. I would then go fishing on Tuesday.

  Because life does what it does, I will go to National's I can get to in a 
day's drive. From Miami that is very limiting. So be it. The show should travel 
around the country so that it is easier for some than it is for others and 
spread the effort over the course of several years.

Now I recall a very specific question about this with elections a few years 
back. The decision was to have a traveling National. That is what we the 
membership voted for, and that is what we are getting.

No, I won't be in Colorado, or Texas. They were being considered when I thought 
I had 2 dogs that would be competitive. Now that that is not the case, I will 
not consider 2 and 3 or more days of driving for any dog show at all. I have no 
reason to.

If I had dogs to show, I doubt I would go to the west coast, but I would go a 
long way. Things being what they are, I see no reason to stress myself or my 
money.

This does not make for a good family vacation for me, my kids are in high 
school, and cannot miss school at this point. My husband fears being away from 
his job for more than a few days at a time. And when he does leave he ends up 
sleeping with his blackberry on his ear. Not fun.

So, I feel the National should move around, and let the chips fall as they may. 
The price of gas and hotels will do damage no matter what.

Speaking of gas!!! TOMORROW IS THE BOYCOTTE DAY FOR GAS. GET YOUR GAS TODAY, 
AND NOT TOMORROW. LET THE OIL COMPANIES KNOW WE DO NOT WANT TO PAY $3 AND MORE 
A GALLON.

The attitude for many years is that the people from the west coast are much 
more willing to travel than the folks from the east so we get to pay the extra 
cost and take the extra chances of traveling with our dogs. I know the people 
from the west are getting tried of being asked to come on over anyway you can. 
Many of the people from the east coast made it clear that they would make no 
attempt to come to the Oregon national and they didn't. Maybe the folks on the 
west coast should learn a lesson from the east coast folks. Don't travel and 
they will bring the national to you. It seems to work for the east coast crowd.

so i don't know if we have it defined anywhere what states fit into which

to know where the definition can be found.
The following is where all the nationals have been since 1970....... 
consider mid as central as per the most recent maps.
1970 - Denver, Co Mid
1971 - Detroit, MI Mid
1972 - Atlanta, GA (Stone Mtn) East
1973 - Seattle, WA West
1974 - Dallas, TX Mid
1975 - Louisville, KY Mid
1976 - Niagara Falls, NY East
1977 - Anaheim, CA West
1978 - Kansas City, MO Mid
1979 - Niagara Falls, NY East
1980 - Cincinnati, OH Mid
1981 - Tulsa, OK Mid
1982 - Cleveland, OH Mid
1983 - Philadelphia, PA East
1984 - Tempe, AZ West
1985 - St. Louis, MO Mid
1986 - Atlanta, GA East
1987 - Burbank, CA West
1988 - Houston, TX Mid
1989 - Philadelphia, PA East
1990 - Anaheim, CA West
1991 - Houston, TX Mid
1992 - Perry, GA East
1993 - Scottsdale, AZ West
1994 - Perry, GA East
1995 - Burbank, CA West
1996 - Lexington, KY Mid
1997 - Perry GA East
1998 - Perry, GA East
1999 - Del Mar, CA West
2000 - Columbus, OH Mid
2001 - Perry, GA East
2002 - Lake St. Louis, MO Mid
2003 - Daytona Beach, Fl East
2004 - Albany, OR West
2005 - Concord, NC East
2006 - Lake St. Louis, MO Mid
2007 - Ft. Collins, CO Mid (west???)
2008 - Beaumont, TX Mid
2009 - Springfield, Oh Mid (but being called east)

It would appear we are really short on west nationals with only 9 out of 40 
being in that zone so Evan's message indicating we need to go west seems very 
warranted. 
18 were or will be held in the middle or central area, 13 in the east. Ft 
Collins being clearly east of the great divide should be a mid zone. It 
appears there was a "relaxed" pattern for many for several years of mid, mid 
east 
then west, slightly broken up but not clearly defined. The survey in 2004 
by the board indicated the choice of east, central, west, central and got the 
most votes. It seems like a fair assessment. The survey and its maps were 
also moved and adopted by the board, so I think they need to look at the 
pattern of adoption and the division of zones.
In 40 years there has only been 1 national in Florida, and they have the 3rd 
I believe highest membership state. I think we should re think 
Jacksonville if it has everything to offer, or at least take a look at it - AND 
I think 
we should be looking for something in California.
Just some more facts to consider.
