A Day at the Raccoon River Park









We started with a walk around the lake.








Gracie quickly found short trails to the lake








How fun to swim...and cool off!









What a beautiful day!








The Raccoon River levels were quite high, but not above flood levels








Many trees were close to the high waters









This trail separates the river from the lake








The lake is much more calm and inviting!








Gracie checks out the scenery


















A family fishes from the boat dock








Many flowering plants adorn the route









The accessible dock invites many to fish

















A view of the lake from the dock









The beach calls many to swim!








Wow! The high waters offer the puppies an opportunity to swim!








Gracie jumps right in!









The water's fine!








Splish, splash!


















Water obstructs the gate to the back part of the park








The girls still find their favorite shade trees.



























Gracie loves to swim!








Priscilla watches...









...then wades in!








Gracie teases Priscilla in the water!








Lots of other dogs enjoy the water, too!
