Well, thanks to El Nino, we do have water. (Yay!!!) and we've been in it some if the air temp was warm enough. Too cold for water force or swim-by, certainly, but an in and out mark has been OK. ...

It's probably not any one thing that will fix the creeping and it will probably always be an issue. Tomorrow when we go training, I'll walk her back to the holding blind if she is...
