This morning we took Thurmon back down to the Warden Woods ravine, to play in the creek that he enjoyed so much last weekend. Mark threw a stick in the water, which led Thurmon to jump in at the edge trying to get to it. He would only bound in as far as his feet could touch bottom, and in his frustration at not being able to reach the stick he kept trying to bite the surface of the water, then would dash out and race across the rocks, only to jump back in the water to repeat the cycle - very funny.
And then, almost without realizing it, he'd gone in deeper and was swimming out to the stick, then swimming back with it in his mouth. Very exciting! One stick was enough for him - after that he trotted up the hill, ready to go home for a very long nap.
Below: Thurmon starts to swim, followed by the triumphant return.
