I am retired and have been doing a lot of hiking with my dog Kelley. Kelley has done all the peaks in Acadia National Park as well as those in Camden and the Donnell Pond and Monteville area. We have also done Big and Little Moose, Petit Manan and the Cutler Coast. We hope that other hikers will share hikes they have enjoyed.

9/5/10 Neighborhood
Comfortable weather again. Kelley was looking so sad I decided to try taking her around the neighborhood with a wheelchair. This was a first attempt by someone who has not used a wheelchair until now.Worked pretty well-not as fast as she is used to but better than hanging around the house. There was a small garter snake in the road and Kelley was pretty interested in it but I managed to get her to move on without damage to the snake. She knows where her dog friends live and stopped in front of their houses in hopes they were outside but they, alas, were not.
I see a dogsled in your future.
ReplyDeleteThe guy at the hospital was joking about Kelley pulling my wheelchair. On level ground she can if she would keep a straight line rather than exploring all over the place.
