Cross Country

Today Jim and Jean took me to Castlewood State Park.  I thought we were going for a regular walk.  When we arrived there were people, lots of people.  There was a cross country race going on.  There were a lot of kids who wanted to pet me and tell me how beautiful I am.

First we saw a very famous person, Sarah Haskins.  Sarah was on the US Olympic team.  She was there with her little daughter Caroline.  Caroline liked to pet me.

Next we went to watch the races.  You won't believe who we saw.  Jennifer was there!  I went up behind her and walked between her legs.  I surprised her.  She was happy to see me.  I helped her cheer her team.

I have to tell you something about cross country races that I do not like at all.  When they start a race they shoot a gun!  I do not like gunshots.  No wonder those racers run so fast - they are trying to get away from that gun.  I was very brave and did not cry.

After the races were over Jim threw a stick for me then we went home.
