20160806 – Mooses, a Hike, Brats and Beer

After a great meal with my friend Susan, we headed out on a hike to wear out their new puppy, Joy.  She’s a super sweet dog and has more energy than a nuclear reactor.

Just a bit up US40, we headed to the trail head for the Broome Hut, which is part of the 10th mountain division hut system.  Click here for more info:  http://grandhuts.org/about/broome-hut/

As we started on the trek with Joy, she was so excited to be outside.  About an hour from the trailhead, we ran into these lovely ladies, who were just lounging in the woods.  I love a MOOSE sighting.  They’re just amazing animals.

Hi Ladies...
Hi Ladies…

As we continued up the ridge, there were some incredible views of mountain fields, flowers, and creeks.

Of course, there’s nothing better than a hot dawg and beer down in town.  The sun finally came out and it was an amazing afternoon on the patio.
