I will no longer be updating Iron Guide (see below). Instead, I am now writing at my new, personal blog. Though that will be about some of the newer things I'm doing in life, if you want to see updates about Louie, Lester, and now Dusky, add me on Facebook -- there's enough ridiculously cute pictures to go around.

Hike up Rattlesnake Mountain


Phew. The last couple weeks have been total blur. Sorry for not updating more frequently.

The first blushes of spring are arriving in Seattle and a bunch of us have been just dying to re-start our weekly hikes. Although several other people flaked out [ahem: TAXES? what kind of excuse is that?], on Sunday, Quincy, Brett and I hiked up Rattlesnake Mountain. It started raining halfway through, so we wussed out and turned back at about two miles out and a quarter mile up.

Here we are near Rattlesnake Ledge. It's not quite the Ledge -- that's a few hundred yards to the west. We either can't quite or didn't want to follow directions. :)


Although I brought water specifically for Lester, I forgot his water bowl. So, we improvised: I cupped my hands, Quincy poured water into them, and Lester lapped up as much as he could before it all leaked out. It was all kind of funny, but, thankfully, Brett didn't have the camera. =P

We probably totaled out at around four miles. Although Lester has gone on longer walks with me, that's not bad at all.
