Blazing a new trail

Our interurban trek today started out with the usual sightings - joggers, hikers, potential four-legged friends or foes - and ended up with an off-trail excursion that we'd probably never locate again. In fact at times I was beginning to wonder how easy or difficult it was going to be finding our way back.

Each side trail seemed denser than the one before, but that didn't seem to faze my scout. The herding skills may be buried (or scrambled) deep in some genome cache, but this boy is a natural in the woods - and fearless - which is why we don't venture too deep.

After almost an hour of trailblazing and working up a decent sweat, Casey and I headed for home, and dinner.

 

I kinda think we were here.
