First Team Outing!

[Nanno]

Phil and I had a great drive with Finn and Sputnik today. We're still practicing with them as a team. I think we'll try to get them going well as a team again before we go back to single carts. Besides, they are both in the middle of growth spurts (especially Sputnik--my goodness!), and I don't want to work them too hard on pavement while they're growing. They were better today than the last two drives and they left the truck without weaving, charging, and stopping. Phil did most of the driving today and got in lots of good practice. The boys were patient a couple of times while we stopped and talked to people along the way. I could tell from their restless shifting that they wanted to get going, but they were obedient to the "whoa" command and did not fuss. Phil and I are teaching a goat driving clinic at the end of April and I think the boys will be well prepared.
