Parkway Beauty

We were able to take off Kolo's cone collar today.

We took her up to the Blue Ridge Parkway. We have to limit her exercise, but we can walk her gently. It was cold, but stunningly clear on the parkway. The visibility was amazing; you could see for hundreds of miles. There was virtually no one up there with us. We had the parkway to ourselves. What a gift.

Kolo was excited in the car. Usually she sleeps in the back seat. But in a stunning change of behavior, she was looking around, up, taking in the scenery. Full of excitement. We felt it, too.

We wondered if perhaps her vision was faulty for a long time before her blindness.

It is very remarkable to watch her celebrate her life.
