Hi Donna

Thanks for the kind offer! I think we will have to
wait and see how things pan out, what the program
looks like, how many days it involves etc. Our issue
apart from requiring stables is that we camp in our
truck so to pack up and truck into a show and then
truck out to camp again is more trouble than it is
worth. Still is something to think about and who
knows!
