My family and I love to go on hikes, especially along the Appalachian Trail being that we live very close to one of the most beautiful parks in the country (Shenandoah National Park). Elise N. also enjoys hiking there as well with her boyfriend and their dog. She asked me to capture that in cartoon form for her to give to him as a present. Drawing this one made me get the “itch” to go on a long hike, despite it being the cold winter month of February!
