A day to savor

We made it. K ran all the way to a spot where we love to gaze at the morning light on the mountains. The last time that she stood on this mini-arch was 7 months ago, the day before her toe situation made running impossible. On that day, I had no idea that K wouldn't be able to run that far again for a long long time. I also had no clue that she'd end up losing a toe to a nasty infection. But, that's behind us now.
On our way there, we had some wildlife peeping at us.
Near the end of our ride, K's eyes glowed with happiness. My eyes glowed too but they're not as stunning as K's eyes!

A day to savor...

  5. I love the picture of K on the arch! She just looks so regal and majestic. I hope we'll see lots more of K getting back to her favorite haunts! :)

    I never get tired of looking at K's eyes!

    It was unseasonably warm for us on Sunday -- in the mid-eighties, which is what made getting in the water possible for all of us. The body part washing up is sad, but if it's who they're talking about, I will be happy for her family to finally know about her and stop wondering. It's been a statewide mystery for a while now.

  12. We all remember so very well that it wasn't too long ago that we all worried about K's future on your trails. She has the same courage and perseverance and strength as her best friend - you. We are overjoyed for both of you

  15. K looked so grand and regal up on her perch that she hasn't been on for a time. Its all just wonderful that she "made it", with you at her side.

    Will she require check ups to see if the infection is staying away?

    Good luck, K, we will always root for you.

    Kisses,

    Stella
