This blog is about my road-camping trip with my German shepherd dogs, Leben and Erde, from 19 Sept to 13 Oct 2012, which took us 3700 miles from DC to NY (and Beech Mountain), and then onto seven different provincial and national parks circling the Great Lakes. Just before Thunder Bay, Ontario, Leben became paralyzed, so we returned by way of Minnesota and then east to DC.

Current Plan for Our Trip in 2012

This was the planned trip, Part II of our 2011 trip,  16,700 miles over some 60 days. Unfortunately, Leben had to have spinal surgery on July 17th.  After an eight week recovery period, during which he received intensive physical therapy, he is about 80 percent of where he was before the operation.  Since we can only leave now (September 16th), we will take a  trip, but probably not as planned. My guess is that we will take it easy for this trip, spending a month in various provincial parks in Ontario, and then deciding where we should go from there and for how long.
