On Thursday I left my house at 4 a.m. and drove nine hours to Great Falls, Montana. These two came along with me.
I did an invited lecture as part of the Bringing the U to You. Before leaving Great Falls, we visited Wildflower Chase and his family — this is Starry with Chase.
The dogs and I then drove to Missoula where we had a VERY happy reunion with these two (and their parents).

This morning —very early — I took Starry to campus to track. She did 440 yards and four turns (all on non-veg surfaces) — it was so fun to be training a dog there again. Here are some pictures from our walk back to the car through campus.
We met Suzanne and Jay and their dogs for a fun walk on our usual road.
And we all went for ice cream at the Big Dipper 🩷
Capella
And so on — so much fun!!!!
I have some work-related activities tomorrow and then we will head back to Boise very early on Tuesday.
It is so wonderful to be back in Montana ❤️
