My Girl Vaida: An Adventurous Hiker, Her Big Yello

My Girl Vaida is the story of Caitlin and Vaida, the bright-eyed lab mix puppy she adopts and takes along on her adventures, moving from interesting workplace to interesting workplace and from trail to trail while pursuing one of their shared favorite pastimes, hiking. Along their journey to the tops of all the four-thousand-foot mountains in New England and up and down the Appalachian Trail in the Northeast, they travel long distances, meet a colorful and rich cast of characters in the hiking community, and manage to help and be helped in lovely ways by friends, fellow hikers, and even complete strangers.
Part love story, part hiking adventure, Vaida and Caitlin's bond and inspirational tale is a reminder that transformation and change can come from the most unexpected places.
