Hollywood My Ass

Picture isn't great but got a chuckle when I framed the image on the trail this morning. Our first trek after the time change and a storm.
Witnessed sunrise.
Saw Joseph and Maria.  He's carries 20 pound weights up. They were by my feet when I snapped this shot of him taking the short cut down from the top. Maria is in her 70's and greets everyone by name on the trail. 
 Ramona and I made it to the top and immediately started back down the trail. Always lovely as sunlight hits it. See the people high above? That's the top.
When we approached the exact spot where I'd taken the snap of Maria and Joesph, the Manny Pacquiao was there with his dog and a guy who is either his brother or a decoy.  Looks are very similar. Ramona was on leash because Pacquiao's dog is a Jack Russell. A male and thinks he's the alpha dog so he yips at Ramona. She's ready, wants to play but because of her size everyone thinks she's the aggressor.  So, as she and I strolled by Manny asked, "Boy?" I told the Champ, "No, a girl." He smiled and said, "Big girl." I nodded, wished him luck and started back down the trail.  Within a few moments he, his dog and his buddy jogged past. They were ambushed by fans who wanted pictures and Pacquiao obliged them.  The 3 guys, one in a suit ???, then asked if they could run with him and off they all went.
When Ramona and I got to the bottom of the trail he was doing his thing.
With his little buddy keeping guard.
