Digest
version:
you can fly - you can't fly - it's too
cold to fly the dogs - your
paperwork is not worded right - vet needs to fax new stuff from
Wisconsin
- it's not too cold
to fly the dogs -
you're going to Dallas, TX - some of you (Bob, Patty, Michelle, Kayla)
are
going to Chicago, without dogs - Chris, Eve, 4 dogs stay behind
- you're not
going to Dallas, TX - planes are too small - you are going to LAX -

sits on
lap -$120 later LAX - you're going to St Louis -

dogs in crates up the belt! ...you

St Louis - Patty went to Chicago - driving down SOUTH to St Louis 400
miles (she
lives SOUTH of St Louis) to pick us up - oh you can't park there, you
might

have dogs - we
have to run back and forth to get them loaded - too bad - you have to
move
@#%$@#%%% - middle
of the night - get
the dogs loaded - cold cold cold - driving back NORTH to Springfield,
