This past weekend, Gadget got a last minute spot at a local NW trial - and he earned his NW1 in fine style - two "P"s (pronounced in Containers and Exteriors) and worked his butt off!
Stacy would be proud, as if we hadn't had a CRAZY time in vehicles his other three elements were less than 30 seconds TOTAL - but vehicles was SUPER hard - the second half of the day when my group ran vehicles, and we ended up having HUGELY variable wind conditions that gusted up to 25-30 mph - gadget got stuck in between the vehicles and kept randomly changing direction until he was finally able to find source - and he worked his butt off!
Huge thanks to Stacy for believing in us - I used to be SO not trusting of gadget, but I handed over the reigns to him and trusted he knew exactly what to do! And we got LOTS of great commentary - onto NW2!!
