First Hike This Week

Westminster Dog Show pose?
Started the week with a long hike around Tortugas.  There were a few other hikers and joggers about--one a guy who jogs with two Australian Cattle Dogs.  Becca doesn't like the dogs, perhaps because she's half cattle dog.  We also ran into the two women who hike with the tan dog.  Today they had an extra dog, a small white one who, they said, has been at home because he had an operation on a rear leg.  Oh, and we saw 1/4th of a rainbow.  Didn't photograph it, though, because it was rather pale.
