Oh What A Beautiful Morning

WOW! It was so cool and beautiful out this morning both me and my person could not wait to go to the park. There are so many reasons that the park is great for both of us.
The night before last the thunder came again in the middle of the night. I jumped the gate and ran upstairs to check on Jessie and my peeps. I lept into their bed right on top of my person. She got up and came downstairs with me but she did not seem happy about my protecting her and the others. Plus, yesterday morning she was tired and it was raining so I was out of luck.
As usual today made up for yesterday a million times over. It was so cool but sunny and my person and I definitely enjoyed that.


We walked up toward the Disc Golf wall and than down to the bench on top of the
medium hill. This picture is from the top of that hill. I love running up and down that hill and my person loves the view so we are both very happy there.
We went to the beach first today because there was no need to be sure I cooled off at the end of the walk. At the water we ran into Buddy and Mel. Isn't Buddy a cute little fellow. My person sometimes calls me Buddy. Maybe Buddy is my middle name. Merlin Buddy etc. OK I'll buy it. It was great to see Buddy and Mel walking together. They have been walking with other dogs recently and that has made me wonder if they were having a doggie fued. Glad that was not the case.
So, I took a quick dip and continued on. I heard something down near the deep part of the river. Suddenly I saw my girl PEARL! Running and jumping and rolling started and I was happy. We were headed in different directions but my person and Pearl's person are canine cronies so they stopped and chatted. This gave Pearl and I time to really enjoy each other. I was so glad that one of my favorite Labs had come out of the woods! She is a sweetie and full of energy.
Up the big hill we went and saw Pierre, Benji, Trixie and Ziggy walking together. A friendly butt sniff and off we went again.
We were lucky enough to see Bella the miracle dog. She looks great and has not shown any signs of the illness they said last year that she would not live through. That Bella is a sweetie and a beauty and I am a better dog for knowing her. Right after little Bella we saw Caber and Niles. While having a little exploration with the boys a new dog showed up. He is a Vizsla named Romeo. Just like all the other Vizsla's at the park this guy was full of energy and fun, fun, fun. He said he just moved here and found the dog park straight away. That is very lucky for him. I am looking forward to playing with that guy in the days to come.
OK. I am so happy about today's walk that I think I will just go lay down and enjoy thinking about it over and over again.
