I had to grab my reading glasses to be sure that the score, 83, was a qualifier, and not a 63, a non-qualifier.
Larsen did pretty well along the whole course until the figure 8 near the end. At that point, he became interested in something far away. I rolled a hand grenade into the middle of his head by asking "is that Aki"? Larsen came right back from wherever he was and looked around with great interest to see if he could locate Aki. Of course, he could not, but it got his attention back to me, we completed the figure 8, and went about our merry way on the course.
It wasn't just Larsen with his head in the clouds. The judge took a minute to explain to me several missteps that I had made that brought Larsen's score down. Sorry Larsen!
Due to the timing of the Rally competition, I missed the WSS conformation. I caught the Boykins, though. Here is Susan W. in the ring with Ritz.
