Opening the Gardner site for GBAEC

Today we opened up the Gardner Fish and Game Club site for earthdog season. I seriously did not want to get up and get there this morning. It was rainy and cold, only 40 degrees. I didn't bring the dogs because I figured I would be dying to get out of there ASAP because I wasn't expecting too many workers to attend.

It actually wasn't that bad. There were about 20 people there to help, and the work went quickly. I helped put in Master and then finessed Junior. It only took about 90 minutes. Then I stayed and helped train Senior.

In hindsight, I should have at least taken Spot. He doesn't like to get wet, but it wasn't raining too hard and I think he would have enjoyed it. I was worried we would have to wait around to do training, but that went fast too.

Oh well. Next training day is in a couple of weeks, so I'm hoping the weather will be better.
