It was 48 when I walked Breck this morning in Raton. It sure felt great. And the drive north on I-25 was uneventful until just south of Denver where I was in stop and go for about 20 minutes. I was really glad to see the wreck and get by it. This trip I went north all the way to Loveland instead of turning west at Longmont. Probably adds about 35 minutes to the trip but the drive up the Big Thompson Canyon is a much easier drive in the motor home than the drive up from Longmont.

My neighbors called today while I was on the road - my trees were planted behind my house on the golf course. Can't believe I got new trees that I won't see for weeks! They were nice enough though to send pictures so at least I have an idea of how nice they will be!

Got here about 2:30 or so and Schers was here waiting for me. She and Arietta had done some small hikes while Anndevoy did a 12 miler. So I met Arietta - she held Breck while Schers and I got the motor home all set up. Then they left to go wait for Anndevoy at Schers' house. They brought Anndevoy over when she arrived so I got to meet her too. They brought a picture of their dog that they had had to put to sleep last year - he was Breck's twin brother. It was amazing - the same black circle around the base of his tail and ther rest of his markings were very similar too - maybe a few more black spots.

Tomorrow Scherry works ao I will take Breck to the dog park - he needs to get some running and swimming in since he has been stuck in the motor home for 2 days. Then I will go up to Bear Lake to hang out with Scherry for a while. Maybe I will even get some pictures to include tomorrow.

All for now. Watching the Steelers but may have to go to bed before the game is over.
