Today, the weather was perfect. That perfect early spring temperature where you feel the sun melt into your skin for the first time in months, where it almost hurts it feels so good. Today was also Good Friday and by all accounts and purposes that was a good enough reason to blow off work and run off to the hills with a pack of dogs and my favorite blond friend Jax. We decided to stroll into uncharted territory and check out the Trail head at the base of the Pactola Dam.

The funny thing about the hike was that, despite it being new territory to us, we knew a handful of the first people we ran into out there.  That didn’t last long though, we were able to get away from familiar faces as we strolled further down stream. The adventure, aside from a few (delicious to dogs) dead dear and a mishap with an iPhone and the water, was fairly uneventful but it was also lovely and exactly what the doctor ordered on such a gorgeous day.
