Greys & Things

We had such a nice weekend.  The only rain that occurred came around 2 a.m. and only lasted a few minutes.  Rain had been predicted each day, but each day turned out to be sunny at some point in the day.

I was very disappointed in the way that had to update my blog.  I could only update it while we were driving around and that was not easy.  It was hard loading photos.  I had to write the blog in Word and then copy and paste it as we were bouncing around on the road.  I hope the next trip is a little better as far as that goes.  As long as I have a cell phone signal, I am able to get online.

Yesterday, we visited Dillard Mill .  It wasn’t open for tours, so we just walked around.  I’m sure it is a really pretty place when the sun is out.  The sun always makes places prettier.

After the visit to Dillard’s Mill, we traveled to St. James, MO and visited Maramec Springs .  It was beautiful!  The sun was still not out when I took the photos, but appeared while we were still there.

We walked all around and looked at the trout, visited the hatchery and just enjoyed the scenery.  We met a Great Dane.  Our dogs were scared of him.  I guess they have never seen a dog bigger than themselves.  His head was at least 3 times as big as theirs and he towered over them.  I should have taken a photo, but since they were scared so we didn’t talk to him very long.

This morning we took the dogs on a trail. They both really love trails. Scout wasn’t very sure about trails when we first adopted her, but she has learned that they are fun. She likes to be in the lead. She never likes to be last. I think it is part of that racing instinct. You know, being last is not good in a race. Also, the view never changes when you are last. LOL

Here’s Scout and her Daddy on the trail.
