Well, yesterday morning, Orion decided he really wanted to meet the ducks who have moved into the vernal pool - well, ever so briefly. As soon as the icy water got to his chest he decided they weren't really worth it (they are in the upper left side of the pool) especially if they wouldn't meet him half way.
We continued our walk.
Who would ever put a picnic table in a spot like this - nothing to see here. This is one of my favorite walks to the top of the hill to the west of us, with all the snow capped mountains of the divide.
Well, Orion hopped up (as well as the old guy can hop) onto the table to get a better view and
decided he liked it so much said you'd better stay off my table! A silent guard dog at work.
I'm with Orion. When the icy cold, whether the Atlantic or Brooks Pond, hits my belly button, returning to shore sounds GREAT!
