I have been told I am now cancer free. I did a lot of reading while I was sick and the book that inspired me the most was following atticus.I have now started to hike at age 60 to get back in shape the cancer took a lot out of me. At the trail head of every hike in the Belknap range I say this one is for you Atticus.

I have climbed in the Sierras and love my schnauzers... but I have not thought to combine them. Shame on me! You have set a new standard for thoughtfulness and companionship and each day is bigger with your voice in it.

A little online research to learn you are writing another book about your life with a new dog. I feel like I missed the 2nd sequel in a series of 3. Reading here in your blog, will you write more about your loss of Atticus and your response to your recent health issue (what ever that was)? How did you come to meet Samwise? <br />I want to know and read more!

I have never witnessed any place like it. I enjoyed just sitting & listening and take in all that surrounded me. I can only imagine the beauty of the night sky this time of year. Your words are intoxicating, yet provide a sense of calm for me. As always thank you for sharing. Please give a hello to all the beauty of the White Mountains for me.
