Sunday morning walkies

Wow, am I lucky! Mom had to drop some prescriptions off at the pharmacy and we had two hours to wait so we went for a double walk this morning - even though it was rather wet and overcast. First we went down to the river and with all the rain we have been having the last couple of day the Missouri is very high and flowing soooo fast. Of coarse mom had to take that camera and as much as I tried giving her "the butt" she kept making me sit and pose for 'good' pictures. My tongue doesn't hang out much like Martha and Bailey's do, so I can't use that technique to ruin the pictures....but I usually turn around just at the last second so mom gets only pictures of my butt! Anyway, here I am at the start of the park and then off we went. We also stopped by to look at the memory wall. All the tiles on this wall were done by Grade 3 puppies and they depict the travels of Lewis and Clarke. Some of the pictures are very funny - especially the ones of their Newfoundland dog. Of coarse after such a long walk I had to have a sit on a bench and rest and just enjoy the view (the ground was too wet)












After we got back to the car, I had a nice long drink and then mom looked at the clock and said we still had some time to wait, so she decided to drive out to the lake. It was very pretty with a soft mist hanging over it - not that I noticed of coarse, I was to busy checking out all the great smells. Okay, I did stop to enjoy for a little while, only because mom sat down on a bench and refused to move!!! Why do mom's and dad's like to stare out at the view like that? You would think they would enjoy the smells like I do....but I guess it's hard for them as their noses are so far away from the ground. I have had a great Sunday so far and I hope you all do too.
