February 2016

I am enjoying February. I have towed my human friend round ParkRun twice (114th then 81st out of 400). 
The best bit has been going camping and walking along the Grand Union Canal. 
I really liked the campsite as the owners had thoughtfully left an old tennis ball under a bench - good for chewing!


I had a cosy night even though the mercury was below zero overnight as I was wrapped up in my sleeping bag AND dog coat. 


A bit nippy at the start of the next day of walking. I learnt to tap the ice with my paw to get some water. Don't worry - I know not to walk on the ice in case I fall through. 


A little while later the sun came out - woof!

After a lovely morning walk including lots of wildlife watching, we caught the train home for a rest. ParkRun tomorrow anyone?!

January 2016

I tried to go camping at the start of the month but ended up sleeping in the car as the campsite we intended to stay at was shut (waterlogged). 

Take two - Norfolk Coast
A successful trip. Got a finishers medal for our first ever canicross race at Thetford.  After a short car journey we had a nice walk around Burnham Deepdale / Brancaster area before snuggling down in the tent. I tried out my new dog coat overnight - very toasty! Sunday morning was a warm 11oC - had a long beach walk / swim / game of fetch. Now snoozing on the sofa back home. Please excuse my sleep-woofs - I think my dreams this afternoon will be quite exciting!

Last year (2015)

I like reading the microadventure blog and in the spirit of this, decided to go camping every month in 2015. I managed this and it was suggested I create a blog to record my adventures in 2016.
