Morning snuggles, waking up in the rv. Sleeping arrangements are tricky and definitely different from home. But cozy nonetheless. • Spent last night in North Carolina visiting friends and their daughter. What amazing timing for our 1 day visit, their (large) neighborhood had a huge egg hunt for all the kiddos! 1100 eggs hidden throughout a handful of properties and a prize for everyone of the kids at the end. It was epic, and Lumi loved it! • Now onward, to visit family in Tennessee! 💗 . . . #goodmorning #rvlife #travelingwithkids #neverleavethedogbehind #visitingfriends #visitnorthcarolina #durhamnc https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw2SocrAz-s/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jrupce05jvzk

Helen Mort - Poet & Author - ‘Never Leave The Dog Behind’ who explores the relationship between people, dogs and the great outdoors.

Helen Mort has published two poetry collections with Chatto & Windus, ‘Division Street’ (2013) and ‘No Map Could Show Them’ (2015). 

  She won the Fenton Aldeburgh Prize for best first collection. Her novel ‘Black Car Burning’ was published in 2019. 

  She teaches creative writing at Manchester Metropolitan University and she is also the author of ‘Lake District Trail Running’ (Vertebrate). 

  Her new book is ‘Never Leave The Dog Behind’. Inspired by the story of Missy, a German Shepherd who was abandoned by two hikers in the Canadian Rockies, the book explores the relationship between people, dogs and the great outdoors, comprising interviews with dog owners and experiences with a variety of dogs as well as Helen's own observations as a runner and pet owner herself. This is a book for anyone who loves dogs or has ever been dogged by loneliness and found solace in animals and landscapes. 

  Helen in her own words:

  “I’m a mum to a toddler, a step parent, a trail runner, climber and all round outdoor enthusiast. I love the Peak District and get out whenever I can. I grew up in Chesterfield. I love dogs, books, dancing and real ale.”

“The Runaways.” A little prequel to the last painting: As they slipped out of his palace rooms, she whispered, “Darling, remember how I said: ‘When we run away together, be sure to wear something practical’?” “Oh, yes!” He said, proudly. “This is my MOST practical outfit. Do you like it, My Love?” “Erm, yes, you look very handsome...and...ah..I see you’re bringing along Mr. Fluffy.” “”Of course I’m bringing Mr. Fluffy!” The prince looked offended. Mr. Fluffy also looked offended. “I can’t just leave him behind.” “No of course not.” She sighed. “Well, let’s be off. Provided we manage to escape and aren’t executed for treason, I’m sure the three of us will be very happy together.” . . #watercolor #storytime #scifi #drawing #neverleavethedogbehind http://ift.tt/2G0tLeM

@deanpotter was the last of a very specific breed of climber. Sorry to lose him today. Hoping Whisper wasn't with him, but it's a safe bet she was, and rightfully so. #neverleavethedogbehind

Just discovered that today is the #blackdogday! So, happy day to the black dog that changed my life: Kaya. a.k.a. “Black coffee”, a.k.a “tongue out”, a.k.a “the cone”. 🖤 (A good day also to the grey one...) . . #dogsofinstagram #dogstagram #neverleavethedogbehind #meandmydog #doglover #dog #blackdog #cane #canenero #tongueout https://www.instagram.com/p/B3FsdRtgnMZ/?igshid=14nmh530xq1cz
