Sunday Morning Walk (with Pictures) :)

Okay, this is going to be a simple blog posting......I have pictures so there's usually not much I can say than what the pictures can say for themselves......We drove to the next town over (10 minute ride) and recently walking/biking trails have been made. So we decided to drive down there and check them out. I got pictures......

We are walking - we parked the car behind us......

Jake is taking the high side! :)

Just enjoying the scenery!

More scenery....

Coming up to the power lines.....

Yep, the trail goes under the power lines and then T's off each way....

Here's the "T"....which way do we go....left or right.....

We go right......this is what we saw when we took a right and walked straight...

And when I turned around and looked back....

Across the lake.....

Still taking pictures looking back....

Can you see Jake tagging along.....

Hmmmm, Jakie, I don't think you want to get too close to the edge....

Yep, it's down hill straight down to a stream....

Okay, let's get out of here.....take me home Jake!

So that was our walk today. It was fun and we went in the morning before the temperature dropped. I wanted to show you Jake's AKC Canine Good Citizen paper and all his report cards for being a super good dog. I'm actually thinking of what the next step for him would be. What's the next level/degree/step for him to improve his behavior and well-being. He's great, I just want to push him to his potential! :) A good dog is a happy dog! :) Okay I'll leave you alone for now. I'll bug you a little later. Tomorrow I have a few things to do. I have a couple of errands to run, poker at 7pm and a free online class at 10:30pm......so all that tells me is that I have to be running on time all day and no slacking off! We shall see! LOL! Have a good night :)

Reporting In On My Last Three Days

Hi! It's been a couple of days since my last posting......let's see here.....first off, Jake got his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate in the mail. So, I went to the store and bought a frame for that. Of course, when I got the certificate, it came with a brochure of all kinds of Canine Good Citizen's pet tags, leashes, etc. So, I ordered a small silver tag for his collar with his name on it.......he's doing super good.......and he deserves a trip to PetCo real soon. :)

My classes are done for this year.....they will start back up next year, so my schedule right now has opened up a tad......my walking group is still 3 times a week.....rain is coming for the next two days, so I'll end up going to the gym on the treadmill instead of walking outside. I hate wet sneakers LOL! I went to the gym this morning to watch the Dr. Oz show......I like going to the gym when there is a good TV show, it keeps me there double the time I would of stayed without a workout distractor :)

Last night's poker tournament was okay........I lasted 1 hour and 15 minutes coming in at 12th out of 30th for the second week in a row. Just can't seem to jump into that top 10 yet......but it's so much fun. I would say that out of 30 players, there are only 4 women playing (including me). I will continue my quest to gain card playing experience and, of course, feed my social interaction. :)

The Manchester Young Professionals Network has a "Power Lunch" class on Wordpress on Thursday from noon to 1. The class looks pretty basic for people who want to start a blog on Wordpress, but I still want to attend to see if there are any Wordpress advanced topics that might come up in discussion and it might lead to other networking events that I might be interested in (and it's free) :)

Other than that, it will be a quiet week and thru the rainy days ahead I will hang out with Jake and go to the gym. I'll be back to bug you again. Have a great night! :)
