Tom & Atticus
The first blog that I started reading and continue today is The Adventures of Tom & Atticus. Tom and his miniature (but bigger than life) schnauzer Atticus (M. Finch) have been hiking the high peaks of the White Mountains for the past several years and blogging about their adventures. Atticus may be the cutest dog ever and his hiking exploits are amazing. Tom is a great writer and photographer so each blog entry is worth a read. The photos reveal the beauty of the mountains and sometimes harshness of the weather, here where mountaineers come to train for trekking in the Himalayas. Atticus is quite photogenic, but seems most at peace when he is looking away from the camera and out at the spectacular view before him.
