Below, Keeper with lots of energy as a cancer survivor!!! That's the Kananaskis Range behind her. Our easy access to this place closes for the winter today . . . . . we have to add a half hour to our voyage by another route until May. But we'll be back.

It's so wonderful seeing pics of Keeper joining you guys :goodvibes:.

Absolutely beautiful!!!

Gorgeous pictures as usual Rick! And Keeper is looking good. The hair seems to be growing back nicely. Did she stay in the water long? Brrrrrr I love looking at pictures of your dogs enjoying their wonderful life.

Nice to see the two of them hiking together again :cloud9: Like a little bit of heaven with that scenery!

Ohhh Rick just beautiful!!

So nice to see Keeper enjoying your walks , love the first picture :cloud9:

Wonderful as always :cloud9:

Such a beautiful way to start the day...I need to go there!!! Pics are SUPER!

So nice to see Keeper and and about and Abby and Keeper back together...we've have a bit a bad news on this board the last little while. How nice to see a survivor's story! Way to go Keeper...stay healthy girl!

. Did she stay in the water long? Brrrrrr

I watch them closely, but frigid water doesn't bother them for a fairly long time but, like anything, it would eventually catch up to them. So we move on fairly quickly at this time of year.

Below, from today, Keeper silhouetted on the ice of Chain Lakes.

Oh Rick I love those last 2 pics :lovestruck: :lovestruck: just beautiful

I hope you have the last one enlarged & framed :cloud9:

All the shots are beautiful, but especially that last one!

I love the last 2 pics as well. Just beautiful.

Cindy

Oh WOW!!! These are just gorgeous!! I LOVE that last one especially!!!!

BEAUTIFUL pic of Abby and Keeper walking away on the fresh snow :cloud9::cloud9:

I hope you have the last one enlarged & framed :cloud9:

I don't have that one framed . . . . . . but Abby and Keeper were asked to donate a framed picture to a charity silent auction last week.

This one from a year ago, a walk to Chester Lake in Kananaskis with the snow falling and the sun shining, altered to look like a painting, is the one they donated to auction and fetched $200 for charity.

Rick, as always, your pictures leave me speechless.

It's wonderful to see Keeper back on the trail with you and Abby. I love the picture with both of them walking next to each other. That's just beautiful.

Sigh :cloud9:, Rick I love how you manage to capture the spirit of the dogs together with the fabulous landscapes :lovestruck:.

Just beautiful Rick :thumbs up So happy that Keeper is doing so well.

OMG Just beautiful...you can feel the silence :cloud9::cloud9:

$200 for charity...way to go girls!!! :highfive:

Next year I really think the one of them walking away could get a good price too ;)

I gotta vote along with everyone else. Those last two pics of them together just tug at the heartstrings. :cloud9:
And I am so glad they don't stay in that water long. It makes me shiver even looking at it. :rolleyes:
I remember that picture you donated from last year. I remember thinking how it kind of puts everything in perspective. We are just a small speck on this big, beautiful world. I love it!! Priceless in my eyes.

What grogerous scenery! I love the one with the two dogs walking and also the picture u donated. That is lovely!

Debbie

Those pictures are breath taking! The scenery and the dogs... you can feel the spirit of the pictures...wow!

I don't know you very well but I have seen some of your threads, I'm glad Keeper is doing much better! That pic with him and Abby walking side by side made me tear up a little :o

Good luck to you, Keeper and Abby :goodvibes: :thumbs up !
