Mountain Stream

After a day of hiking in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, Ceilidh’s feet were getting a bit tired. So we found a cool mountain stream to take our shoes off and cool the dogs. That’s how the pictures tell the story, but there was a lot of work to get them. I took these pictures at the end of September 2011 so the water was a bit too cold for me, but not Ceilidh 😉 The stream is behind a camp ground, and down a steep embankment. I used the doll dollie to get her down and back. Fortunately there was a rough path so I wasn’t fighting too many trees. I was going to have her skinny dip, but try to maneuver her around slippery rocks by myself didn’t seem like a good idea.

Afterwards I got her back to the truck, and was thinking of staying there, but the campground was filling up and I didn’t have a reservation. I also couldn’t stay at Camp’s place so Ceilidh and I found a motel. It was a good thing we did because it rained that night and the next day. At least it was a good sunset, and we had time for another shoot in the motel 🙂

Enjoy
