A few seconds of Virginia summer downpour and the water streaming off of the roof. In the background, water is flooding the intersection and will eventually flood Fletcher Drive.

Rocky just joined us in 2020 and he's feeling his oats. Or anxious and needs to blow off steam. So a bit of garden rips. This is full speed, about 35 MPH in the straights. Look at the handbrake turns!

Missy and Nick play in the garden following a rain shower.

Every James River Greyhounds reunion features a "marshmallow run", a called run down a linear gallop. At one end we're slipped. At the other is a "squawker" which sounds a lot like a varmint call. When we were growing up and in training, we did marshmallow runs regularly to build speed and strength for the show. Now that we're retired, we do them for bragging rights. I was clocked at 35 MPH which is not too bad for 2 years off the track.

Portsmouth RI, winter of '05/06 Greyhounds Nick and Rhea venture out into 0.4 meters of snow for morning loo. Both think there is overmuch snow so are being quite reluctant to do their morning toilet. A bit of dash and splash.
