    Milo has really bonded to you! It was so sweet when he gave you a little doggie kiss, and I’m glad you’ve found a good hiking companion. He’s so lucky to be part of your family and to be with folks who enjoy the outdoors as much as he does. 😊

    You brighten my day every time you post! No matter the content, you inform and impress me to no end. In truth, you remind me SO MUCH of my Gigi, who I lost a long, long time ago. It's uncanny, really. But your abilities and loves and adventures are totally unique and beautiful! The nature you show me is incredible. Thank you, Wendy. And Milo! 🐶❤️

    Milo is very sweet with you. It’s like he knows not to pull you or drag you along on the trail. It’s like he is aware you are not as nimble as he is. Some dogs just sense these things, plus he has obviously had some good leash training. Looks like you found an incredible hiking partner! Get him a backpack and have him carry his own water and equipment. That’s what I do. Being outside is the best for dogs. Plus you seem well aware how important it is to let them get their sniffs in! Walk in peace, and keep the videos coming!

    Another lovely location and interesting video Wendy. You are so right in your comment 'You don't get anywhere by talking about it". Yesterday I hiked in country near my home with my sprightly little 15 year old dog. A highlight was that we saw two families of kangaroos. You can't beat a walk in nature, in fresh air, and chance encounters with flora and fauna. So long as they don't want to eat you!

    Milo is a star!! I have three dogs. Two could hike with me, but the third one is a challenge. I'm so afraid he would pull me down a hill or dash in front of me. He is a work in progress. I love your adventures. I miss those beautiful trails in the PNW. The trails here in Mexico where I live tend to be very steep and rocky, though beautiful. Just difficult for my arthritic old body.

I don't go far with her though, as she is 12 and has a bit of arthritis and greys are known to just stop when tired and not budge. She is 60lbs. and I can't carry her, so I don't venture too far with her. Hike on!

    Canada sure has some really beautiful places to enjoy outside!

Milo looks like he is enjoying this hike...he looks happy & seems to have really bonded with you too, Wendy!! Wow, it's absolutely gorgeous at the top too. So sweet, puppy kisses...he loves his new Mom & Dad, so easy to tell...both you & Bob & Milo have truly been Blessed to be brought together. Our furbabies don't live long enough, I think...so I'm always so happy when they have good homes, with a family who loves & spoils them! Thank you both for adopting this little guy♥🐾 Thank you too, so much for sharing another beautiful place to go for a nice hike in Canada too, Wendy...I always so enjoy your videos & so happy that you have another companion to share that with!!

    Another beautiful day out in the woods hiking! I have to admit I’m a little jealous, Wendy! It’s still 106 in Phoenix so I’m soaking up your fall weather. Milo is doing so well! It’s wonderful for you to have a hiking companion.😊❤

    Hi Wendy. We're on our second week on Van Isle thoroughly enjoying our vacation, hiking or biking every day. We stopped in Nanoose Bay area twice, on our way to and from Courtenay. Ate at the Nanoose Bay Cafe - great view and good food; and Rusted Rake Brewing - fantastic beer and food and a lovely setting. Enjoying Maple Bay area now. So much to see and do!

    What a lovely hike with such a sweet boy. Milo looked like he was in his element too, Wendy. I looked up the red-bark evergreen in your video and it's called Pacific Madrone. Grows in very rocky areas; starkly beautiful and so unique. The mushrooms are exploding in your woods too! The last hurrah before Winter comes roaring in. Hope you're doing well & thanks for sharing your day with all of us.

      thanks for taking time to look that up . We commonly call them arbutus trees but you are quite correct that they are also called Pacific Madrone. They are very beautiful and majestic . Wonderful colour and shape . I am doing well- hope you are too. Love hearing from you.

    Wendy, you always both relax and inspire me with your videos! I enjoy walking and I have 3 dogs who like walking as well! I do find I’m starting to have issues with my feet if I walk more than 10km in a day. Could you tell me about your hiking footwear? I’m trying to be more cognizant of my footwear so I can walk and hike for years to come (I’m 62)

    • @wendyoutdoors2230
      @wendyoutdoors2230  2 місяці тому

      I have started to wear trail runners while hiking. Main reason is they don't weigh my feet down as they are very light. Lessens my tripping because I am not picking my feet up high enough with boots .I have worn them through water with wool socks and have found they dry out fairly fast and the wool socks keep my feet warm even when wet. I choose shoes now with a wide toe box as they give more room for the change in shape of my feet. I am also finding I am wearing a size larger- who knows why ? I didn't think feet grew but maybe they just spread out over time.

I've found that some of mymost treasured realitionships have been non-human. Trust and loyalty between people and other species has long been legendary. Stay well & safe. Cheers.

    Hi. What a great day for you and Milo! I have to say, you inspire me. I'm in Minnesota and my son is taking me on a trip to our Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness next year. I can't wait, but am concerned that I will hold him back (I'm70). He's promised to plan a route with (relatively) easy portages, and I do have a year to prepare :). Cheers!

    • @wendyoutdoors2230

I had a trip this summer with my son and family and I was a bit of a drag but I think they had anticipated that!! It was about shared experiences.
