    Opal's 14th Birthday camping trip...

    We went camping in the Rocky Mountains past weekend for 4 days and Opal and Ursa loved it!!! Even at 14 years old, Opal was such a trooper - even while it rained all day on Saturday. It went below 0*C during the nights. COLD!
    We were told there was a wolf, bear and coyotes in the camp-ground (never saw the mentioned 3, but heard the coyotes at nights) but saw a lot of these. See it hiding behind the tree?

    Cool looking camper you have there! I love the photo of Opal all covered up and enjoying the fresh air.

    Happy 14th Opal. Love the pictures. That camper is pretty cool. Opal looks so content lounging outside. Great idea to put the pen up.

    Thanks, we love our Aliner, too. We also love the outdoors and nature and the Aliner fits our needs. Not many of them around, although we saw an older model owned by 2 men from Montana at the camp-ground. We Aliner owners tend to seek each other out, lol.
    Ya, Opal is a camping pro, she loves the outdoors and watching out for wildlife and other dogs at the camp-ground. Not many dogs owners can say that "we know what it's like to be penned up like our dogs", lol. And it's a safety thing when camping in the woods.

    What a grand trip for Miss Opal! A great idea to pack and deploy the pen.

    We have seen a few Aliners and have sometimes wondered what using one would be like.

    What a great birthday. Guessing you were on the B.C. side? So the smoke from the High Level fires was not close and was blowing the other way, S.E.?
