The sun was shining, the sky was blue and the leaves were just starting to change color
Best of all, we were together
We paused just long enough for a few photos, then we had ourselves a wild wooded romp.Penny crashed into the lake
While Eko sampled the area’s finest mudpits
And we ran wild together on the off-leash trails. A rare treat for city-folk like us
Emily smiling, Penny clearly about to start trouble, and Eko making a goofball face. A perfect family photo in my estimation
When we put our heads together, we always find a way to enjoy the day
We had an amazing few days with Emily’s family and it’s going to be tough to say goodbye to the trails and the fenced yard. I know Eko and Penny will be quite reluctant to leave today, but I also know they’ll be thrilled to see Auggie (my mom’s dog) later tonight.
I’ll check back in tomorrow, but until then we’re soaking up a few last rays in the yard.
Love the pics with Emily – All 3 look like they are having a blast! You too of course. Can’t wait to see the pics w/Auggie
How wonderful – looks like a truly beautiful start to the Fall season…….together.

we deserved that every day is like this day … or at least our pups deserved it :o) Eko is a honorable Weimaraner now with his muddy paws :o)
The dogwood are probably already in full color.
Great vacation! Hope Penny and Auggie don’t get into too much mischief together! Eko I know will be supervising them
nothing quite like a leash free romp and then a lay in the sunshine. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Enjoy visiting the families and all that beautiful autumnal sunshine. Looks like everyone is having a ball. 😉
I’m sure they love visiting each home for different reasons.
Perfect fall hiking fun! Mud, water, and a goofy face. That’s all ya really need.
Love and licks,

Just have to tell you one more time how much I love your blog. I’ve sent it to friends and they love it too. You really know how to connect with all of us. Thanks
What a beautiful day and pictures
oh good!! I was wondering when you were going to be seeing Auggie!!! Yay! So glad you had a great time at Emily’s parents! Now bring on Auggie!!
It has been nice an warm, nice we are able to be outside and play all day, looks like you had fun and an adventure
Hi Will!
Been following your blog for a while and love seeing other ridgebacks in action (and other times inaction). I was wondering how you kept Eko and Penny hydrated during these adventures. I have a 7 year old ridgeback mix and I kind of just bring my own nalgenes and a small tupperware for her to drink out of, but thought maybe you would know of a better water bottle/ travel bowl solution that you use with your two pups.
