Champlain Canal

These are from two weekends ago.....I know I'm slow!

We were looking for a place to walk while we were at the dog trial & found this hiking trail
It follows the Champlain canal




We eventually came out in the grounds of the Phillip Schuyler house.



When we had driven there on Saturday we kept passing signs that said Zoo with an arrow so on the way home we decided to try & find it.  We drove forever on back roads & through farmland & very few houses.  We were ready to give up when we came upon the "zoo"........ using the term lightly!  There were a few bedraggled ostriches and some........
cows & goats!  That was the "zoo"!
This is Saratoga lake......still half frozen!
Love

    My friends that have the big huge sissy dog alfie, the golden doodle, are driving their motor home up to Albany for a month shortly and since I have mentioned Molly...like a whole lot, wondered if you would like a dog playdate. Not sure of all the dates yet but Shara got so excited at the idea of meeting possibly Molly.

Yowsa!

 I was woken up around 3:30am yesterday by thunder as a line of severe storms were rolling through the area.  My alarm goes off at 4:00am so I figured I'd just get up.  I was standing in the kitchen waiting for the coffee pot when there was a blinding explosion in the back yard along with a huge clap of thunder.  It was like someone threw a bomb in the yard....needless to say it scared the crap out of me & I was waiting for a tree to fall.  We didn't see anything & I left the house at 7:00am while it was still raining.  Popster didn't see this until last night but it had struck this big oak that is about 15 feet from our sun room.  It just stripped that piece of bark right off the tree  Makes the expression "Don't mess with Mother Nature" become very real!

Forever Family Day

Oh my.....where does the time go!  Ten years ago this scared & tiny little girl was brought into a room full of strangers. She was so confused by the strange faces. Now look at the beautful, confident girl she has grown into. We love you LiLiđź’– Love
