I have been spending as much time outdoors as possible... More specifically up Millcreek canyon... On odd days you can take your dogs off leash up the trails... Cleo, Polly and I have been hiking to dog lake every other day...
The colors have been so amazing... It's almost too much to take in. Every other day the colors just get deeper and richer.
You can't keep this much beauty all to yourself! These pictures are dedicated to Lindsey Miles! I'm enjoying the mountains enough for the two of us!
Sorry for the overload of instagram pictures this week! I haven't been carrying my camera around, and I most certainly wasn't going to lug it around on this hike... Although it would have been lighter, and a lot more useful then the nalgene water bottle I hauled up, full of sudsy water.... Blah!
The pooches and I headed up to Dog Lake after work... The leaves are changing, and we weren't about to miss it! My pooches are major fall nuts! Crazy dogs!
It was a terrific 6 mile round trip hike... It was the longest hike I have done in my fivefinger Vibrams... I love them! The most comfortable hike I have ever done... The muscles in my feet are sore, I didn't even know the muscles were there.... Learn something new...
As did Polly who decided to fetch sticks out of the water... She thought it was okay... What was really fun, was hunting dragonflies... She's a natural pouncer...
This was the first time I've been up to Dog Lake without Caesar... This was our hike... He loved it! He loved getting up to the lake, running into the water.... Drinking as much as he could, and then throwing it up! It was his tradition! Silly pooch!
And now to wrap up the moat fantastic birthday weekend ever!
We started off with breakfast on the porch... Drew put away some major travel size boxes of cereal! So proud of him!
We went and looked for stumps to use as footstools, end tables etc... Which we ended up completely forgetting....
We made one last morning hike up to the waterfall... Gorgeous as always!
When we finally made our way down to the lodge we, arrived just in time for the Sunday brunch.... Oh my... It was amazing! And look baby desserts! Too great!
We hung out by the water for a long time, talking about life, and the pursuit of happiness! Truly, it was picture perfect!
Just Drew and me.... And the fishes!
A weekend of perfection!
My heart belongs in the mountains!
Everything is right....
What a terrific birth month!
