Actually since Roberta hurt her hand I haven\u2019t been on much for a walk of any kind, so this was leaping back into it with a vengeance. It proves that sheer determination will get you through things, which means I have even less excuse for catching up with my work. It was a good hike, four miles and 800 foot climb, and Sable loves to hunt gophers, but the rattlesnakes were out hunting gophers too, so we stayed to the middle of the trail. Sable was warned away from one snake and we didn\u2019t need another encounter. Lots of people in the hills.<\/p>\n
