Minga in Colorado

Minga came with us to Colorado and she had a blast. She loved running in the fields and forest by my brother's house. She also loved roaming around with his neighbors' dogs and playing with their toys. She seemed to have fallen in love with an older "man" (a Golden Retriever named Cody)...they were inseparable outdoors.

Minga slept in the back seat of the Jeep nearly the whole ride there and back (about 13 hours each way with stops) as well as during the drives between Breckenridge and Aspen. She had half of the back seat all to herself (we packed the other half high and tight with our luggage). She enjoyed many various sleeping positions, including this one where she rested partway on the ice chest:

She climbed on the big rocks at The Grottos near the Lincoln Gulch campground (she had no trouble with her footing while racing up and down the steep rocks):
