Saint Mary's Glacier

Our very first mountain hikes, with packs!  Pups were incredible.
 Keebler was ready.  Kona...not so much...
 Had to make a pit stop at REI.
 "I'll bite your legs."
 Pups love the Denver Flagship.
 WEEEEEEE'RE HIKIIIIIING!
 Look at that face.
 De Keebs.
 Worth the uphill hike.
 FCS: Fine Canine Specimens.
We tied the dogs up on the ramp outside Beau Jo's in Idaho Springs.  I was super nervous (even though there were two entrances people could've taken if they wanted to avoid them - and some did - jerks).  Keebler spent the first 15 minutes barking at everyone (embarassing) who came close, and Kona tried to lean on them to death.  A trio of cooks discovered them and spent five minutes just loving on them.  Even Keebs bonded with one of them!  The cooks kept coming out to love on the dogs throughout the meal.  Finally, both laid down and didn't make a peep, or even get up, until we came to get them to go home. So proud.
