It's really tempting to let him loose and watch what he'd do off-leash, speeding through the leaves and brush. Of course, I'm not about to try it. I've invested quite a bit of time and money in this animal, so I'm not ready to see it run, run, run away, even if it would be a good show.
Today we hiked out to Raven Rock overlooking Cheat River canyon. It's an easy hike of about 3 miles round trip, and it's especially nice for dog walking because there's a reliable stream for doggie drinks.
And for the humans, there's a great view of the canyon.
Last Saturday, we were in Virginia and walked about 3 miles on the Crawfish Valley trail, which we call "the bobcat trail" because because several years ago we happened upon a real, honest-to-goodness bobcat there. We keep hoping to see another one, but it looks like that may have been a once in a lifetime experience.
The leaves weren't really colorful in SW Virginia last weekend, but there were several pretty trees along the way.
We hiked out about a mile and a half and planned to lie down in the sun for a while. Unfortunately, Henry just doesn't get the concept of resting on a hike. So after his relentless pestering, we finally gave up and walked back to the car.
