Memorial Day

Memorial Day 2009
Ojai, Calif.

I took Tessie out for her first "official" hike on the Sunday before Memorial Day. She has been on quite a few shorter hikes in the hills and beaches around town. This was to be her first ten miler, straight up hill both ways, carrying a 500lb. pack just for good measure. She did okay for a rookie pupper. She is quite ready for the AT just yet but she is a real trooper.



"Bro' you got a thingymabobber right here. No worries, I'll get it for yah!"


Its been kinda warm lately out in Ojai, slowly pushing triple digits. We did a hike that criss-crossed a stream every mile or so. Tess definately has gotten over her fear of water. She loves to splash it around and try to eat it. Crazy pupper!


Is it nap time yet?
