Well, we never made it to Koninginnedag 2007. We waited too long and by the time we were ready to go, it would’ve taken us long enough to get there, that it would’ve been over.

Mostly I wanted to go to get some photos for the main site, but that’s okay. There’ll be other years.

We are most definately going to Holland Happenings though. We’re getting the dogsitter to walk the dogs, and it should work out okay. It’s a 2 1/2-3 hour drive, so we’ll probably only stay for a few hours. Most of the big events will be over by Sunday. You kind of see where this is going, right? -sigh-

Okay, changed my mind. With all the big events over by Sunday, there’s no real reason to go. Maybe next year. We’ll save the cost of the dogsitter, and I’ll dink around here.

Want to come over and mow my yard?

I haven’t made up my mind about if I’m going to do the DACC thing in Kirkland tomorrow. Still, it’s 2:00-4:00 so we don’t have to worry about the dogs.

If I do that Saturday, I’d like to do Holland Happenings in Oak Harbor Sunday. Therein lies the dilemna. Our previous dogs were fine around crowds and noise, but the dogs we have now aren’t, so we can’t take them with us. They’re not outdoor dogs so it’s not like I can let them out all day. Two would be fine, but we own one escape artist who can worm his way through tiny cracks. I’m starting to wonder if he’s part cat. We could probably take the two Keeshonds with us and muscle our way around with them, but that leaves the Doberman who has issues. We adopted him as an adult, and he was crated for his life before we got him, so he hasn’t been socialized around strangers. He’s getting better, but definately not up to a crowd scene.

Argh, it’d be easier having kids.
