Showing without electric access

I just got an email saying reserved grooming for one of my upcoming shows was full (sent reservation in plenty early so not a case of waiting till last minute). There will be some free grooming spots but they cannot guarantee electric access.

I am mentally prepping for the worst, hoping for outlet access or atleast someone having pity on me enough run an extension cord from their set up since I have one dog.

I am showing an Aussie so most/all of the electric I need is just fluffing his coat with the dryer. I will be doing an hour drive to the show each day so I can blow out his coat before we leave but I don't know how well it'll hold up. My Flying Pig pulls too much power to run it off my Ryobi batteries/inverter as I thought I had a work around but the motor won't hardly start with what it can get from them.

Looking for any suggestions or tips as I have yet to come across this previously (and will note to send reservations in ASAP moving forward).

Braved the mud today and came home with the largest rosette in our collection

My only wish is we could get the "2" added to the bottom of the rosette to reflect the actual FCAT2 title but I know many people have figured out a way to add those to the streamer. I didn't actually expect a club to have the extra numbers printed on them.

Super rare Watermelon Monstera

Who would have guessed that all my Monstera needed was to be moved outside after spending winter indoors to show me her perfect variegation revealing she's actually a Watermelon Monstera?

Came for the PoA points, left with OH Group experience

My boy really stepped his game up today and not only went WD but also BoW. In BoB ring he showed his heart out to get our first owner handled points.

We had over a 5 hour break before OH Groups and he absolutely refused to nap no matter what I did - he'll usually settle and nap as soon as I leave out spot but when I came back after a few breeds he was still awake and watching everyone walk by. I tried covering his crate completely, letting him be out with me, being on the table, we even went for a drive which usually has him out within a few minutes, not a single wink.

After he fought through his exhaustion in the group ring (which the "big" ring was an experience itself for him), he promptly came back to our grooming spot to nap on the table.
