This year the wildflowers seem a little more bright and abundant than usual. In particular, the lupine and rose orchids. I wonder if the fog and cool days kept the flowers from drying out? In any case, on the last couple of days we have had some sunshine and the flowers have been impressive.
Unlike on Pyramid the mountains we have been climbing have lacked water for the dogs. When we get to the top and they are all panting. Then on the way down they all rush to the first free water source we come to and lap up water and lie in it to cool off. Yesterday Rey was panting along behind me and we we almost to the bottom. I could hear Bode in the distance splashing in a puddle - Rey instantly perked up and raced off to join the puddle party. Heaven for a dog is a mud puddle when you are thirsty and hot.
