How long would you be at the prison.
Is this something you have to do, or is it something you folks wanted to do.
Do you have a crate, where you could put the dog while you take the tour?
Then come back to school to work the dog?
If you will be gone for two hours, that isn't bad.
Just some thoughts.
And that Vertigo, is a pain I know, I have it as well.
