Pictures: Win some, lose some

 By that, I mean that a) we got cut to 8-hours days this week, so we got nice walks in Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday, but b) Friday and Saturday the whole house was sick, and Sunday rained, so no shots from those days.  Still a bit scattered from OTC meds, but here's what I found on the camera.

Off we go

It was pretty windy, except here on the back side

Safer to just huddle

Looking at a parked car doing nothing

Stony Run on it's way to the river

Looked like an angry eyeball in the water by Misty...

Dad" "Can you find the hidden trail from the back?"  Misty: "Screw that, I'm heading for the main trail."

Next up Wednesday:

Welcome to, "Misty Chooses The Way"

One side, Groundhog Road, and a doggie; the other, the usual path.  Split the diff, up the hill.

And down the trail

Daddy finds more golf balls

Follow the trail, or past the Swamp?  Annnnnnd... the Swamp

But just grazing the landing- no water!

...and under the bridge...

...in search of that elusive spot where I can get to the water

Left at the pile of beer bottles...

...and here we are!

Good enough, let's go

What's up this way?

Along the fence at Coliseum Blvd

"NO!  We are NOT crossing that road!"

"Fine, let's turn around..."

Checking for varmints

Up towards Alumni Center

"Oh, but we must cut across the grass...

...and the parking lot!"

We saw a lady walking a cat- until the cat saw us

Misty was interested, but not obnoxious

Then it was a little doggie, who again got picked up

Believe it or not, the ONE time she walked the length of the bridge without hopping off

Choosing the way through the addition

One of the cross streets getting torn up

Leaving us with Thursday- a day I spent praying, "Don't let me get sick until 2:30"....

Away we go!

Mr Squirrel up the tree

Robins all over in the grass

Doggies all over, too

Never did find out what was with these trucks, we went the other way

Ducks skirting the ice

Misty was either watching them, or the ice.

plenty of deer tracks

View while Daddy takes a break

"Heck with the Swamp and the Landing.  Let's go this way!"

The one white tree in the ravine stands out...

Misty keeps looking this way... ah, that same little doggie.  We'll go the other way

Could this be the reason for the trucks- fresh gravel?  If so, they really cheaped out on it...

Yup.  And they're long gone.
