[nagdu] Heat!

When I went to GEB in June of 2008, we did not work our dogs a few
afternoons because of the heat.  In fact, I believe we went to the
mall one extra day because it was so hot.  Of course, our class didn't
mind; going to the mall meant we could get cookies!  Lol

I try not to do extended walks in this hot. (It's in the high 90s here
too.) But a walk across the street isn't bad.  Brie does well in the
heat.  She actually enjoys spralling out in the sunshine.
