Scenic Route

The temperature is finally back in the range where I don't immediately want to die when I step outside. So I went for a ride for the first time since moving to BB Acres!

The dogs and Tanner and I set off up the road. After a few brays, Hattie seemed to settle into being alone just fine; I was worried I was going to have to pony her along (and kind of hoping I would have to, because how awesome would that be?) but I didn't.

The road BB Acres lies on goes up a hill, turns into a dirt road, and ends in a dairy farm. At the top of the hill, you can see for miles.


You can't really tell from the bad cell phone picture, but there are mountains in the distance. Being a Wisconsin-bred flatlander, I have yet to stop going "Oooooooo, aaaaaaahhh" whenever I see mountains. There's a spot on my drive home from work that I look forward to seeing every day because of its amazing view.

It was wonderful to be able to take in such a view while spending quality, peaceful time with Tanner. The dogs had a blast, and we met two giant Belgian horses and an appaloosa at the top of the hill.

All in all it was a good day.

Headed back towards home
