One-Fourth Less Fun

Photobombed by a sperm cloud

Willow, Frio and I did our morning hike without Dr. K again; this time she's volunteering as a poll worker.  She had to be at the polling place at 6 a.m. and probably won't finish up until 8 tonight.  She texted me at about 11 to say they've been quite busy.

I waited until we entered the right branch arroyo before letting the Heelers off lead, and they were really well behaved.  We did the entire length of the final leg with them loose; as always, though, they received numerous treats for their good behavior.
