Lucy, her furry friend Chauncey and I went part of the way up Mt. Sopris to checkout Thomas Lakes. The hike was full of beautiful Fall colors and cows... Yep, cows.
We learned that Lucy is definitely part herding-dog and Chauncey prefers to use her barking energy on people. At one point a few cattle were on the trail and Lucy made sure she sent them on their way... in the same direction. She herded them off then ran back to me with a huge smile on her face. Next step, next years cattle dog herding championships!
The lakes were beautiful (seriously, not much ugly scenery around here) and it felt great to spend a few hours in the crisp fresh air before I go back to my job at the Aspen Ski Co on Monday.
Lucy spent the entire time at the lake saving ball-sized rocks from drowning.
