Pooch 'n Pal Run

Every year on January 1st, Tri-Cities has a Pooch and Pal run. It's a 1.5 mile, 5k trek in a sagebrush field for dogs and their owners. This is the second year we did it. Last year, we ran it. This year, Janice's parents brought their dogs and we all walked as a group. After the race, they serve chili and pie and pass out awards. The rain did not stop us, we forged on. Janice's parents came down from Yakima this morning and said it was snowing like crazy up there. Here...rain. Dang it. School starts up. How am I supposed to cope with going back to work a full week? The race was fun at least. We beat some people.

Are head locks legal in Pooch and Pal runs? You have raised one competitive dog.

Sooo weird. I just got on your blog and read this post as I'm watching the news on FOX and they just showed this event!! I could see Janice in the first shot I think because of her coat and she was walking!! Nice job getting out there today!
