In the Mountains

Our driveway
We got up to the cabin just after noon yesterday, and this morning we did our first foray into the forest around our property.  We pretty much hiked straight up the steep hill behind our place, and then we hiked straight down.

After lunch today we went out into the yard, and, while Dr. K and Willow took it easy, I played with Mr. Frio who is always ready to play ball.  Yesterday when I was playing ball with him up near the pumphouse neighbor Coop showed up, and as soon as Frio spotted him he chased Coop back to his own property.  Unfortunately Frio took his sweet ass time returning and I had to make it clear to him that I didn't approve.  I did this by wagging my finger at him and scowling, messages he seems to understand perfectly.

It was 23.5F when we got up this morning, and it's been slightly cold all day; 48F now, however.
