Our blog friends Tom and Atticus are climbing the 48 4,000 footers in the White Mountains of New Hampshire this winter, while raising money for the the MSPCA-Angell. You can contribute by donating one of the 48 peaks to an animal. We have done just that. Tom and Atticus will climb Carter Dome in memory of our dog Fargo. Click on Tom and Atticus to see the dedication to Fargo. And of course see pictures of Atticus, the phenomenal miniature schnauzer that literally scales tall peaks, and read about all their adventures, including the curious tale of the smoke alarm.
Here are Fargo and Aria (and me), when he and Aria were in their peak hiking days.
Aria is still with us at age 12, although a little wobbly in the hind end. Her mind is playful, but her body can no longer tackle the hikes.
