Last Photo Shoot of 2017

My last outing of the year... Tomorrow is supposed to be cold and miserable and I'll be too tired anyway. It was beautiful out this morning and the sunrise was amazing so Big Dog and I quick loaded up and headed for the trail.

Footsteps of the Prospectors

Nice ending to a lazy Sunday... Thanks to my ever energetic canine explorer I was not destined to have a full day of rest on this Lord's Day 🙂 Son Boy was getting restless late in the afternoon so I decided to take him on a good hike to the Grouse Mountain overlook near Victor, … Continue reading Footsteps of the Prospectors
