literally.
see for yourself.



oh yeah.
most of you know, i love peepers.
ha ha. this tricky peeper outsmarted me.
wtf?



oh and finally.
the eastern mountain store had an outdoor gear free demo day.
you can try out different kayaks, SUP (stand up paddle boards) and bicycles.
i finally got to try the SUP.
momma was nervous about standing up on it with me on it.
we didn't fall in!
we plan to try renting one again this summer.
i guess i have to learn to hold a down stay instead of standing up.
whatever.

in their hearts for cracker nutters dogs like me too.

We had a great afternoon hiking with Scott & Julie Starling (visiting from Cali), Pat with Jack & Moo and Dee sans Tula.

Spring is in the air!

Yesterday I was reading the news and saw this article "Signs the Big Night is Coming"

The peepers are coming!
The peepers are coming!

Yup... it's true. Listen up. Sounds of Spring are everywhere!

(Sorry camera lens was a bit dirty but you can still listen)
Chasing geese..honk honk
Peeper chatter- chirp chirp!


This year it's not happening until April.
I looked up last year and the peepers were chirping back in March! Wow.

Chilly Cheeks virtual 5k Race Report

hi every bloggie!

Whoa. Yes it's me and I'm posting again. Can you believe it? 

Actually today I wanted to tell you about my virtual #ChillyCheeks 5K race that I ran this morning. See lots of runners start running for many reasons. This dude Big Andy started running for his health but also to help fight cancer. Big Andy was sponsoring a virtual 5k today to raise money for the American Cancer Society. But wait, we were able to do a double whammy. By using our CharityMiles app to track our 5k miles, we also helped raise money to help Stand Up For Cancer. 

Ready to go. 
It's early, about 6:30am.
20F light dusting of snow. 
Reflective vest on. 
Check. 

Untitled

Because there was a snow dusting, I had to put on my Musher's secret. 
Gotta protect my paws. 

Untitled

See?  All waxed up and ready to go. 
Check. 

Untitled

Okay here we are at 3.1 miles!
We stopped at Jericho Skill Hill 
and just in time for the sunrise.  

Untitled

It's starting to rise!!! 
Oh I'm suppose to lookies behind me. 

Untitled

We actually ran/ walked up the ski hill to get a better view, but momma was using 2 tracking apps at the same time on her iPhone and it sucked up her battery juice.
The battery died right when we got to the top. 
Bummer. 

Untitled

Well  here's us again.
Forget Chilly Cheeks, my fur beard was frozen.  See?

Untitled

Oh and my post race medal was Dunkin Donut Munchkins.
Yup... Yummers.



It was cold and chilly but all so worth it .
If you wanna help out Stand Up for Cancer or other charities, it's easy.
 Track your daily walkies with Charity Miles app.
Check it out.
