Heather and I are dogsitting a dog named Tucker, an Alaskan Siberian husky. We took her for a hike at sunset tonight. We laughed a lot, which made it hard to have enough breath to get up the hill. Heather fell a couple times and we almost peed our pants.
The mountains turn red and purple as dusk descends.
Tucker is a pretty low-maintenance dog. Hiking with her is a challenge because she doesn't pull me up the hill. (I end up pushing on her butt.) But on the way down she hurries and pulls me too fast.
It's a good thing we got a little lost, because we timed it perfectly to reach the top of a ridge at sunset.
Heather is hoping no one will notice the water splotches on her shirt.
Check out my sweet backpack and hiking boots. Just the right amount of hiking gear can really enhance the experience. Spencer might be wondering why I'm not using the hiking poles he got me. Well, I tried. I couldn't get them to lock in place. They kept changing length. I'm sorry. I'll try harder next time.
See? So confused.
Just a couple of kittens, out on the town.
I am having a lot of fun with my sister.
Hey. What’s with all the water blotches on Heather’s shirt? Also. Are you come kind of geek who can’t even figure out how to work walking poles?
I’m glad you are having a good time together. Nice sunset, too.
beautiful! what a great photo of the two of you
I knew someone would notice the water splotches on my shirt.
