On Thursday after much prodding of my instructor I headed down to Valley Center to do some work with Scot in a large open field. After much thought I realize this was probably not the best idea.
Don’t get me wrong, it was a great workout. You can get an idea of what we did from Terry’s latest post. Scot got a good workout and I learned a bit, but as we were toward the end of the session it was about 40 minutes work in the middle of more than 4 hours of driving, on a work day. Fortunately I can take the dogs to work, but it was way too much driving for the amount of herding we got to do.
I need to work out a better solution. I want to improve and hopefully even win a trial or two. But there HAS to be a better way.
