To the swimming hole: ~6k. We left with nobody on the leash, a rarity of late. This was not an especially fast group so I wasn't too worried and we were all fine by the shrimpery. I took us across the now-inundated "land bridge" and hit the swimming hole the usual way, coming home in the monte via the blue bag trail. Frankie barked at someone on a bike as we were nearing the tortuga crossroads: very annoying, so she went on the leash for the rest of the run. I put Reggie on the short black leash for the last trail home to keep him from tearing home in his excitement to see mom and tell her about all the places he pooped. We all arrived at the gate together. Alice and George lagged at times but were both really up for it; Alice was on point on the way home so she couldn't have been but so tired. It was a bit cooler out than it has been for a while so the huskier/older dogs had no troubles.
