Poor Dudley is not going to fit in the car much longer either. Here is a picture of him in the car, on the floor between the seats. Doesn't he look comfortable?
Jitter, at 3 lbs., can fit anywhere!! Here she is sleeping on top of L2 in the back seat.
They were both great travelers and Dudley has not had a single accident either in the car, in the dog friendly hotel, or at Gramma's house!
The first day and a half we have mostly just been relaxing out of the car and visiting. I have gone for 2 mile walks each day (up and down the mountain) to get myself acclimated to the thin air. We tried to take the kids on a 3 plus hour hike today, but none of them were up for it, so we skipped it for now. Two of hubby's brothers and their wives and 3 more dogs also came to visit. This family is full of dog lovers.
Tomorrow we are headed to the Loveland ski area for some fun. Hopefully, I will get some good pictures and post those tomorrow. Hubby is not going to ski, as his knee and back have really been giving him grief. L2 and I will snowboard and L1 and G will ski. It is hard to get really good when you only get on the slopes once a year, but it's still a lot of fun. I'm all for visiting snow, I just don't want to live in it. Do you think a day of snowboarding counts as a replacement for biking 50 minutes?
G&G live in Evergreen, on ten acres on top of a mountain at about 8000 feet elevation. They have lots of wildlife that come to eat at various feeders they put out. It is amazing how tame they are. Just take a look for yourself.
At one point, there were 17 deer being hand fed by L2.
Alright, I have to go and play a huge family game of Uno now. Peace out.
