Ro and Lindy's Adventure




This past weekend, Ro had the opportunity to go camping with our friend Lindy. They went up to Mt. Timpanogos. From the 500+ pictures Ro brought home, it looked as though they had good times. Ro opted to borrow Kousin Kona and take her up. She's a good camper and awesome hiker. Ro was worried she would wear our dogs out - or that Karob would be too needy for her. It's usually my lap Karob jumps up in and my sleeping bag she cuddles in.

Ro, Lindy, Kona and Gracie spent most of Saturday hiking. The pooters were all tuckered out by day's end. The weekend also included a dutch oven pudding, steak and salmon dinner and pancakes! They ate better in the mountains than I did here at home!

As for my weekend? It was nice, quiet and relaxing. I was able to spend some time putting the Halloween decorations out. Our house is nice and festive now. Putting the decor out also meant dusting and cleaning the house. Something I'm glad Ro wasn't home to see! Another secret? I cooked for myself too! Even made my own coffee. See, I'm not as dependent as people think I am! Ro just takes really good care of me!

I'm glad Ro was able to get a camping trip in before winter hits. She loves it up in the mountains. Hiking and being outdoors really helps keep her grounded. We all need an outlet and I'm glad she's found one - and a healthy one at that!

I am happy to have her home, even though she hasn't stopped talking yet. Shortly her voice will fade out and the voices in my head will reign.
