>> Deacon and I completed our first endurance ride on June 23, 2007 at
 the Hopkins Creek ride near Manton, MI.  We finished 25 miles in 4 ½
hours, including the hold time

yahoo!! good for both of you!!! <;]

>> Deacon stayed in camp this time

good!

>>The temperature was 58 degrees Fahrenheit and the bugs (fortunately)
were still sleeping

wow...perfect weather.

>> Deacon got a B for gut sounds and skin tenting, but A's on everything else

great vet check.

>> already down to 60, but he was breathing harder than usual because
he  was hot.  I slid his tack off and sponged him a little before
presenting him to the vet for our completion

ah...you can sponge during LD? you can't for CTR in my region.  is he
still furry? huginn still is and i'm thinking i need to reclip him

thanks for sharing your fabulous ride story!
