Know where your at and what's happening around you. I'm talking about the weather. Hope you all have a safe trip and time while your there enjoying your hounds, but the mid-west has beening having some tuff weather. The middle of the night is not the time to try and figure out "what to do"! Have a plan and besure your kids are included. Best of Luck and have fun. OT

(Hope the local Club, Fire and Law Departments have a plan also)

Oh my goodness, I am afraid to go now. Have they ever had a tornado up in Michigan? I thought that all they worried about up there were blizzards.
