Running around the hill

January 23, 2015 by J.B.

It’s cold and foggy here in Cle Elum, but that didn’t stop Missy, Jamie, and volunteer Becca from going on a few walks this morning.

Jamie likes to walk slowly and steadily, while Missy tends to run full speed until she catches up. Then she waits for Jamie and Becca to get ahead so she can run and catch up again.

But there’s something about the last downhill stretch that gets everybody running…even Jamie.

Missy is smooth and graceful when she’s running, while Jamie lumbers along awkwardly.

In fact, I sometimes worry that she’ll just run out of control with her head down until she crashes into the fence at the bottom of the hill.

But she always manages to stop.

And then it’s time to go around again.

    It’s great to see them enjoying the outdoors – and only if they want to! Great pictures – thank you for posting them.
