 Hanover Courthouse  Seren had a 200yd straight line track with 8 articles. Each article except start & end had food on track ~15 steps beyond. Two had food in them. Fifth article was off track to the left. She had a great start until line got snagged, then it was merely good. Indicated all the articles & re-started readily. Good attitude after 1 day off following a very difficult track https://youtu.be/kisxemmgwsk Dylan had a 3 turn track with turns not flagged. We had an unplanned fresh crosstrack that was laid just as we were getting ready to run the track. Couldn’t see exactly where the guy went, but I marked it in the map based on Dylan’s behavior. First cross really confused him, but 2nd one he handled much better. Good start & end article indication. I’m getting better with the new line https://youtu.be/EPy75T_Hv_I

 Poor Farm Dylan did a 2 turn track with a stream crossing on leg 2. He also got to practice acting civilized when cars go by. Didn’t take him long to solve the stream problem https://youtu.be/Sz3AZxEq9_w

 Surry P&R Seren had a 4 turn track, 2 articles in the woods, one with food in it. Double lai @10:05, run @2:10. Sunny, 59degrees, 6mph, 46%. Nice start, started hunting something after 1st turn, was able to recover. Nice work in the woods. Good article indications. Children at playground where I have never seen them before were a major distraction, but we got through it ok https://youtu.be/5bRDFrjIHdI Dylan had a 3 turn track with only 2nd turn flagged. 35min age. Overcast, 51degrees, 8mph, 70%. I was happy with how it went https://youtu.be/Krhk0H8eUv8
