I’m still visiting my parents after coming home for the holidays. Mom is also off today, so we decided to go hiking. I ordered us a pass for Garner State Park and we decided to take Buddy, my new dog. We got up early, got dressed and headed out to enjoy our hike. Once we got there, we decided we were going to hike up Old Baldy, so we started up the trail. I did not realize how hard it would be to hike with a dog. First of all, Buddy wanted to meet all of the other dogs also hiking and he kept pulling on his lease. The other issue was that it has rained the night before, so everything was wet. And finally, I couldn’t use my hiking poles because I had to hold onto Buddy’s lease. Needless to say, we didn’t get far. We finally threw in the towel when we were going up, and Buddy decided to run up the incline while my feet slipped on the wet rocks and I was slowly sliding down. I had to let Buddy’s leash go, but luckily he ran to Mom and she was able to grab him. We decided it was too dangerous to continue so we went back down.
