| Another day of the same with the puppies. After the initial stops and starts for pooping and peeing, we were off. They did fine again today, still going strong at the end. Next...the fire roads in PWF. |

| My first attempt at running with the dogs. I took them to PWF to run on the scenic loop. I figured this would be easier than trying to run on a trail for the first time, and I could run an out and back, so when they tired out, we could just turn around. Well, they *never* tired out. This was their first run ever, for 3 miles, in hottish, humid weather. And they were still going strong at the end.
This has good and bad implications. Good because, as suspected, they will be good running dogs. Bad because...what will it take to wear these dogs out?!? |

| "The Tale of the Snake" in which kissy is kayaking down a canal, only to realize that she is surrounded by Northern Water snakes and is nearly paralyzed with fear. She manages to make like a high-speed paddle boat and make it home before a close encounter with a snake that one website describes as "highly aggressive and will strike often and repeatedly." Nice. |

| Running 50:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Adidas |
| I had to work pretty much all day, so no beach for me today. I did go over to the lighthouse, though, and explored a trail that I thought was there and that I thought went through Buxton Woods
It *was* there and it *did* go through Buxton Woods. And it was one of the nicest "trails" I'd ever run on. It was actually the width of a jeep trail, flat, and pretty much grass covered for as long as I was on it. It was like running on a linear lawn, with maritime woods on either side. It was truly enchanted. I would have run longer, but I was meeting my sister, so I had to cut it short. |
