 The girls were already pre-registered, so we just picked up the "goodie bag" and bandanas. |
 We were reminded several times along the route to keep puppies leashed. Waste bags were placed in many locations. |
 The morning offered several beautiful views. |
 The accessible fishing pier had just re-opened. |
 So where's Gary?? |
 Gracie approaches one of many fun facts signs. |
 Priscilla takes the time to read the signs! |
 It's a peaceful morning along the trail |
 The calm winds allow reflecting waters |
 Priscilla decides it's HER photo opportunity! |
 More fun facts. Much of the trail is very shady |
 The girls rush to make up time. I guess photography slows them down! |
 Gentle reminders along the way |
 The girls seem oblivious to the signs |
 Several bird homes of different sizes are throughout the park |
 We are greeted by this house guest |
 Priscilla checks out the river level. |
 The river is well within its banks now |
 The girls pause in the shady trail just north of the river |
 No hunting?!? Can we at least herd?? |
 Gracie finds another sign as we near the halfway point |
 We take a few minutes to head through the grass to the lake. The grass is still wet with dew! |
 Gracie's had enough - it's time to move again. |
 Gracie is definitely on the lookout for fun facts. |
 Gracie locates a bench overlooking the river, just before the trail heads north |
 Priscilla wants to know if it's time for a rest! |
 Both girls take a final look at the river before resuming the walk |
 The girls follow a couple of joggers |
 They pause as soon as the lake appears again |
 We could both be beach puppies! |
 Priscilla appreciates the beauty of the lake |
 Gracie appreciates the opportunity to run! |
 Aha! Another fun fact sign! |
 Off they go again - through sun and shade |
 The girls are tempted to swim - but don't want to get their bandanas wet! |
 Yikes! What happened to the trail?!? |
 The trail is scarred from the flood waters. A huge ravine stands where the trail once stood |
 Dauntless, the girls plow through sand and rock |
 And emerge to find the trail - and another fun fact! |
 The trail is barricaded with a sign warning of the washout. We are close to the Dog Park here |
 One final fun fact near the beach. Our fun day at the Dog Jog is nearly completed. |
