One of the best things about our new area is the close proximity of great places to hike - and cool off! What a treat on a hot summer day! Lucky has always loved the water, but Lady never was too sure. She would gingerly step into the water, taste it, and then look at me. I would offer all sorts of encouragement, accompanied by enthusiastic hand gestures and pantomine, trying to coax her into a more adventurous approach. That has changed this summer! Lady has abandoned her dainty ways, now honing in on every creek or stream within 50 yards of the trail. Katie, who is usually Lady's sidekick in all things, will have nothing whatsoever to do with the water. She won't even stick a toe in or take a drink. I told her she's part labrador retriever, but she apparently doesn't believe me. No matter, we all had fun, wet or not!
Glad, that are starting to settle in! Am the MOST jealous that all live so close to wonderful water! Was once a time that water was all around near house of self, but no longer. Please to be coming to live with you?

Mom here: Oh to be on the trails with you. We have been trying to get to Asheville since October. Reservations canceled due to hubby's sinus infection, postponed to April, reservations canceled due to my Dad's hospitalization. Once again we have reservations for Oct 2-4...hopefully the 3rd time is a charm
Hugs Madi and her Mom
Some happy looking dawgs!
