So close to swimming

Closer to swimming


The weather was good so we did a bonus hike to check out Baker Lake. No. Not that Baker Lake. Not that one either. The little tiny one that nobody ever goes to except the dipshits that build huge fires and shoot their compensatory guns.

Tink, of course, was in the water the moment we arrived. The only time she wasn't swimming was when she was giving me a stick to throw.

Tilly still doesn't quite have the knack of swimming, but she's so very close. She waded and jumped and splashed a ton. It kind of looked like she swam just a touch, but I'm not counting it just yet.

We cleaned up a ton of trash and headed back to look for pikas along the road. There are still a couple in an isolated field there, but I can't imagine they will be for too many more years. It's not connected to any other fields and doesn't go high enough to get out of the heat. #sadface
