Trail walk

Oh yeah! Good stuff. I have 80 acres out in the middle of nowhere and hike out there 365 days a year. Great time to do some deep breathing exercises while you hike...
 
I walk a verified 6-8 miles a day. Too bad they're all in a factory.

There's definitely wildlife in that place, but not the kind that ya'll are use to seeing. :(
 
Great pics newyork. Thank you for sharing. That's awesome your dog can go off leash with you on that trail. I bet she loved it. Looks like you had a great time. Nice Fiddleback!
 
She can be trusted in the woods. She stops and waits when she gets too far ahead. I do not trust her in town by the road. She scares easily and darts off.

That sounds like a good companion you have there.
 
Beautifil location, dog, and of course knife. Love the Hunter.
Thanks for sharing! And glad you made it out!

Adopted her at 3 months old. She was with a litter. She is now 4. They said she came here from Puerto Rico. My guess is she is part Border Collie. Fastest dog I've seen and super smart.

Charlie is a beautiful companion! And I fully agree - she definitely has some Border Collie in her blood. She has a lot of similar characteristics to our Border Collie (she's also a rescue dog).

Great looking dog! I used to have a border collie that looked a lot like her. The only downside to border collies is if you don't give them a job, they will find there own - whether you like it or not! ;)

I keep reading that Border Collies are among the smartest breeds out there. What they don't tell you is that they are also the biggest smart-alecks out there as well. We've put our rescue Border Collie through all sorts of training and she always passes with fine colors - obedience training, field training, etc. But when she's not trying to impress someone she does *exactly* as she pleases. Its not that she's disobedient - she just marches to her own drummer. Very very mischievous!

Thanks for posting the pics of your trail walk!

Hey Ed, small world. I was there during the same time. We would start on the Gerritsen beach side of the inlet and work our way around past the golf course, down to Dead Horse Bay to the Rockaway Bridge. Sometimes we would get a boat and hunt an Island in the middle of the inlet called Mau Mau.

Yes! I had forgotten all about Mau Mau! Man, you just brought back all kinds of memories with that one! We even tried to make it on a piece of boat slip that had broken free and drifted in from ... (rockaway? breezy point?, jamaica bay? who knows ... ) ... and we ended up in the freezing water in March ... Coast guard came and picked us up ... we were p*ssed about their intervention back then but in retrospect, they likely as not saved our lives ... cool story now, but my Dad wasn't too happy when he got the phone call ...

Wow, small world indeed ... :)

I thought it probably was. Very nice looking knife, looking forward to seeing that handle age. I was studying on the Osage Woodchuck in this weeks thread hard. I'll need something in Osage at some point...probably either a Woodchuck or a Bushcrafter.
 
Realized I got all caught up in memory lane ... my apologies ...

Thanks for sharing this, newyork - great dog, nice little walk, beautiful knife ... doesn't get a whole lot better.
