Fun times over Thanksgiving

We had wonderful weather over Thanksgiving, and with 2 healthy pups (finally!), we went on a great 8-mile hike with the boys at Caesar's Creek. Patric and I are planning a 4-5 day backpacking trip with the boys in March, so we wanted to use this hike to see if Brighton can handle walking for several miles at a time. He did wonderfully!! Coda also did great! He is 6 weeks post-op now, and is more healthy now than ever before. No limp whatsoever!
