Ting found an awesome rental for the long weekend so that we could hang out in the country with the shibas.
The drive was ~2 hours — Emi was more than happy to spend a part of that sleeping in my arms. After a while, she moved back to spend time with her brofur, and he wrapped his arm around her and cuddled.


The cabin was pretty awesome. The enclosed yard gave Shio and Emi the space to stretch their legs.



After a short break, we took a short trip to the lighthouse. The light was beautiful around sunset.





The inus were pretty tired after a long day…

… But they were both ready to go the next day.

We went hiking at Kaaterskill Falls. It was nice to see snow given we did not have much in the city.





We all enjoyed ourselves very much…

beautiful!!
Awesome! Thanks to you, now we have a new mission: find a vacation rental with an enclosed yard.
It normally takes Kaiju about a day and half to feel comfortable enough to come down from a couch or a bed (whatever he chooses to perch on when we go to those new places). Free running in the enclosed yard may help…
I think Shio, Emi and Kaiju should go play together. I bet they will have so much fun!!
Thanks!
Your site has the most amazing pictures. Looks like they had an awesome time and what a fun relaxing getaway for all of you! Good job finding a cabin that has a fenced in yard too. Your trip has inspired us to look into Blue Ridge Mountains (Georgia, ~2 hrs from us), seems similar with cabins, lakes, trails, small antiquey stores, homemade pies, but we have yet to find one with a fenced in yard.
It took just two hours from the boroughs? Wow, you guys made great time! Upstate NY is gorgeous. Just as beautiful: Shio and Emi still smitten with each other.
NYEarthling – It was more like 3+ hours with the tunnel traffic and stops we made!
stunning. absolutely stunning.
ny has some gorgeous locations!
They are so sweet!
We have a shiba inu and a shiba inu/rottweiler at home. Wonderful dogs!
