Dirty Wet Dog, the great adventure.

Dirty Wet Dog, the great adventure.

Go for a hike, sail a boat, paddle a canoe or sea kayak, spend time out in the woods, on the trail, up a mountain or down a canyon. Live the fullest and best life that you can…..have great and terrible experiences while you have the chance because life is short. Think your own thoughts and be your own person, if you can then share some of that with others.
