Kirk Park, Lake Michigan
Sept. 19, 2016
 |
| Our celebration for finishing Core G, after 100 Weeks (2 years) on it. This was a really nice, really enjoyable day! |
 |
| Sophie was a bit hesitant to get in the water...for the first hour! Then she saw all the other dogs swimming out and getting balls and sticks and her courage increased. |
 |
| It is so relaxing hearing the waves crash on the beach. There was a nice wind, sunshine, and just a gorgeous day! |
 |
| Dd brought our umbrella--so glad she did! It was so nice Sophie moved under it too. |
 |
| I'm working on a some kind of cowl for me---I need something really thick and warm for the winter....not sure if this is going to work out. Even though I used a really small needle the cowl doesn't seem very dense, like I was wanting. |
 |
| Dd has been really enjoying Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. She read when she wasn't swimming. |
 |
| Dd did a lot of swimming. I thought we'd be cold and brought a fleece! I wished that I'd brought my bather instead, as it was such a gorgeous day. |
 |
| At Kirk Park there is a large beach for people, and a smaller section for people to bring their dogs to--I really love having Sophie get to swim and run with other dogs. |
 |
| The walkway is sandy--the trees don't seem to mind. |
 |
| A final look at the beach before we head home...so pretty! |
 |
| The half mile walk through the woods back to the parking lot is my favorite part! This year there aren't as many mushrooms as usual. |
