Soooo, you're going from "cold" to "just a little colder"?

I'd start to get worried if I lived in Houston and was going to Traverse City. :-))

Should be no big deal for ya'.

Yup, name is Buddy. He's also on all the refrigerator magnets that ESRA (http://www.springerrescue.org) gives away, as well as coffee mugs, yada, yada, yada...

I didn't take the photo. It was a "lucky shot" taken by a photographer friend at a Springer Nationals in Olympia, WA, a few years ago.

Here's a better shot:
