morning walk:
Zasu
Henry
Lucy
Bette
Blue
Monkey
Linda
Murci
(8)

Roni took this crew into the bugosphere on patrol around the cow pasture and environs. The bugs were ridiculous, probably the worst they've been all year. It was Murci's first walk and she did well but definitely wanted to make sure she was near Roni at all times (she's no dummy). The last 200m from the shrimpery home were brutal and they jogged/ran to keep the bugs at bay but they were hounded all the way to the screen porch. Everyone did well anyway and had a good time.

morning beach dash:
Otto
Gowron
Shirley
Rufus
Jack
Boscha
Tori
(7)

Up the beach to Au Soleil Couchant and back: ~4k. Shirley was on the leash and Rufus was loose when we left; he was a good boy and I only put him on the other end of the leash coming home at the HoJo to keep him honest. We kept a pretty decent pace but I dialed it down for Shirley's sake and everyone was good about it. There was a lot of swimming and horsing around with nasty dead fish on the beach.
