K has been able to climb Hug Hill easily in recent days despite the endless heat and the smoke. Another lesson learned - don't ever give up when there's still a wisp of hope.

Inspiration
We were out hiking fairly early this morning, and we made it up to Hug Hill. K loves to stand with her paws on a stump atop the hill.
A couple of weeks ago, I thought that we'd made our last hike to the top. Then, K rebounded and we climbed to the top of the hill again. On that hike, I started adding a small pebble to the crevices in the top of the stump each time we made it to the peak together. You can see them in the lower left of of the photo below.
You can see that we've made it to the top quite a few times after I believed that we'd done our last Hug Hill hike.

I'm not feeling very well today, and I'm loopy from pain medicines so I'm signing off, hoping for a better tomorrow. I'll use K as my inspiration.

ReplyDeleteI've been trying to take the girls for a walk in the morning too. It's been 76 degrees at 6:00 AM so there's not much time before it hits the 80s and then upper 90s. This is really not my kind of weather.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon.
What an interesting tracking device ;-)
ReplyDeleteHere's to you feeling better!
