Well I am driving to Baja Mexico. Today. Kinda.

I have been building a van over the past 6 months to be able to camp in. I have been camping in it with Annabelle a lot over the last few months and now we are taking it for a two month road trip down to the Baja Peninsula.

My van has a bed, running water no bathroom.

Today we start. I picked up Annabelle today from a 3 week training at Flash Dog Training in Bend, OR. She was starting to have horrible recall, barking at other dogs on leash and pulling a ton.

Flash Dog Training took her in for 3 weeks to teach her correct behavior and train her on an E-coller.

That girl worked so hard and now it is my turn. I am nervous that I will do it wrong, that I will correct her wrong or I will be to lenient. I need to concur these fears and remember she has just put in the work. She is ready. And so am I!

We have some homework to practice tonight and one more training session tomorrow then we head south from Bend. The plan is to head south pretty fast to exit the US and get into the land of sunshine and not freezing weather in our van without heat.

I am at a bar having a beer after the stress building up to today. I am going to plan our camp spot for tonight and hit up a store for some last minute training needs! ALL THE TREATS.
