Wow, what a day!

We had such a fabulous day! We three women went out to climb, two guys did as well, and my beloved spouse got in a very respectable 10 mile hike up to the top of what is called Mt. Washington, although it isn't one of those spectacularly snow-covered behemoths we have around here. Still, the views were terrific.
We womenfolk had a very nice day getting used to rocks again, since we haven't been out much thus far; been rained out consistently. The weather was perfect, no one got injured, and neither of the two dogs with us fell off a cliff or ate anything horrible. The chihuahua, Enzo Ferrari, did attempt to roll on a smashed slug, but was intercepted in time. This adorable little black and white five pound wonder dog hiked all the way up and back down with us, about 4 or 5 miles total on a steady upward grade, with only one boost to get over a little stream. He did conk out at the crags, but he's just a growing pup, so that was to be expected.
Great time had by all.
