Walking in the rain

it was a little muggy out tonight to hike with my pack so I went for a walk with Lou instead we was caught in a gentle rain  and a neighbor dog joined us  it was just a lovely way to spend time with my girl and my thoughts  ( I’m not giving up I will one day hike the AT )  the joy on my girls face makes me smile and she is now curled up at the foot of my bed happy that I got to spend time with her ..now off to the chat room to learn about cool hiking gear /read some FANFIC ..and FB LOL
