Tuesday

A wonderful thing about Othello is that he gets me out of the house every weekend in the woods. I used to bike a lot, but since this dog has come into my world, I have shifted more to hiking. As you know, he loves the woods, and around this time of the week I start planning which of the thousand places that we can hike (where dogs are allowed, of course) within an hour's drive. And that does include the thousand other turnoffs where you can hike down to a stream or up through a clearing.

The topic of dogs on trails came up at dinner tonight about dogs and being leashed and everything, and this site only says "...and keep pets from harassing wild animals." So I think I am safe.

Here's a picture taken on the trail before the October rains came. I think it's Rockport.
