Siouxland Pets On Parade

What a beautiful fall day - perfect for a road trip!! We heard there was a SOLA "dog pack" - we're sooooo there!

We had our pledges for the Siouxland Humane Society, filled up the tank, and took off. Gary and Lisa Marie were planning on staying in the car, since Gary did not want to take the van for his wheelchair.
