4/10/17 Newport Rail Trail

Had to go to Newport to Kelley's vet to pick up some meds. I'm also dog sitting with a friends dog. After the vet we did a walk on the old rail bed.

Mostly muddy but still some snow


The lake was still frozen



 but there was lots of water in ditches


I took Cooper's leash off in hopes of getting a picture of the dogs together but cooper took off and I had to chase her down. Good thing she has short legs.


We had a nice hours walk on a warm ( 70 degrees) sunny day

  3. Oh good grief-I hope that 70 degrees ended up getting rid of that snow!
    We had our first T-storm yesterday and wow-the green-up in the yard was amazing. Almost hurts the eyes seeing color-LOL!
    Have a great day.

    1. Good day to you Sue- most of the snow is gone as we have 50 degrees and rain - but we will soon have spring color too- it's always dramatic after our long cold winter.

  4. Do Cooper and Kelley get along good? Nice to have a little company for Kelley girl?

    1. Hi penbayman- no problem - they pretty much ignore each other- no friction but no affection either. I can never figure out why Kelley interacts with some dogs and not others.
