It's awakened in me memories of my youth when my father would take me along for a day of hiking up in the White mountains with his "hiking buddies" a few times each summer from the mid 1970's to mid 1980's. Those special days from those long ago summers were then and are still, some of the best days of my life. I believe that dogs have a soul unique unto themselves and that from time to time God intervenes and ensures that the two, man and dog, destined to be together find each other. God bless you and Atticus for the wonderful work you both do and I wish you both many, many more years of health and happiness together. Tony P.

I live in west central Florida and the only "mountain" here is an arching bridge over the bay. So, when you write about your life with Atticus and Will, just for a few moments I am with you in the mountains, in wild nature, on a hike through forests and amazing vistas.

Nature has so much to offer and it is wonderful to see it with you and Atticus, and sometimes Will, although I don't know that I'd be so relaxed sharing blueberries with the bear!

"Oh what a beautiful morning …" ...Hi Tom,<br />"Oh what a beautiful morning …" thank you for sharing it with us and allowing us to follow Atticus. The air is sweet and the sun is shining here, too. I just spent one hour and eighteen minutes on a live chat with Dr. Kress from Project Puffin. I feel so invigorated and grateful. It is wonderful to learn new things and share with others. There was a seven year old asking questions and one of hers was answered live. She was so over the moon and excited, you could feel it through the computer screen, when the chat ended she was going to call her grandma to tell her all she had learned this morning. Made my heart sing and eyes leak. I must admit he answered two of mine and I was just as excited. Great way to begin a day and oh what a beautiful day it is. Enjoy the rest of yours and the weekend ahead. <br /><br />Peace dear friends.<br /><br />As always, hugs from here to there.<br />Betty<br /><br /><br />Bettynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-61956844359239911672014-07-18T11:00:03.407-04:002014-07-18T11:00:03.407-04:00Thank you for the vicarious experience!

I once hiked up to Middle Sister while everyone else headed to Chocorua. I had the mountain to myself for a bit and I could see the crowd on Chocorua. Enjoy your quiet peaceful hikes. I look forward to hearing about more of them.
