Into the hills

Took all the dogs on a little 5 mile run into the hills on Sunday. I'm avoiding cleaning the house!

Here's the start at "pistol range".



UP the hill for a mile


Some wildflowers are just coming up. My friend Cyndi, who's a naturalist, says these ones are called "blue dicks" but I think she just gets a chuckle hearing us say, "Oh look at the nice blue dicks coming up..."

This is starting the last mile where you go down, up, down, up, around, down up and up up up for a while.

It was raining and MUDDY (which will have consequences for me later)!

View of "hanglider" from the top. Ooops! Here's what my GPS looked like after I took a little spil in toad's gully.


And here are my pants. I got a couple scrapeys but nothing too serious. It was especially nice after I fell when all my dogs jumped on my to make sure I was OK. Thanks doggies!
