After almost three weeks off from mushing and warming up with some walking in harness this week, I thought it was time to get the MPs back in front of the scooter. We haven’t been down to the Mendota Trail in awhile so I thought we’d give it a whirl.

Alas, Mother Nature had other plans for us.

Did I mention we’ve had a lot of rain lately? Like, a LOT of rain?

Yes, the road is underwater.

No problem, I thought, we’ll go up to the state park and everything will be ok.

OR MAYBE NOT

So I drove home, put the skijor belt back on, and did some more cani-hiking.

Even while walking, she Bumps. God I missed her when she was off. ❤

Then we stopped for a rest in a lovely clover patch.

There’s rain in the forecast for the next several days in a row, so I don’t see the situation changing any time soon. I’m just looking at it as an opportunity for us to practice, practice, practice and for me to get some exercise along with them.
