During today's hike, as I was just 7% away from reaching the peak of our local hill, I stumbled upon this beautiful creature who appeared lost. Upon closer inspection (read cuddling), I noticed a tag on the creature's collar with his name, Don, and the owner's phone number. I contacted the owner and learned that he had already descended to his car after hours of searching Don. Determined to help, I offered to walk Don down the hill. Together, we descended the hill where I lost him two more times but he always popped out again from nowhere searching for the rightful owner.

The peak will be there the next time but Don might not be.

You gotta do what you gotta do!
