Gordy has gotten too big for me to pack on my back up Kealia (hiking trail).  His 23lbs weighs me down and my hips beg me to quit.  So, I decided to try letting Gordy do his own hiking.  From the moment we arrived, he was super excited.  He never asked me to pick him up once and he waved at everyone who passed him.  During our second water break about 1/3 of the way up the mountain, his red, sweaty little face was happily guzzling water, and then... saucer eyes.  To both of our surprise, a steady stream of pee pee started pouring down his leg and into his sneaker.  He was embarrassed and a bit uncomfortable, so we turned around and made our way back down the trail.  Although we didn't make it to the top, the hike was a huge success - we are already planning our second trudge up the mountain!
Yay Gogo!
