A Walk at Town Lake

This Saturday Mama took me on a walkie at one of our favorite places, Town Lake!!!

Guess what the almost first thing I saw was????

Mama look...a SQUIRREL!!!

Mama took me for a closer look and, of course, once it saw it was ME it took off running up a tree

Where it held on so it would not fall into my clutches....smart squirrel!

Here is a far away shot of our State Capitol building. Austin is the Texas State Capitol in case any puppy didn't know.

Here I am showing my stair climbing abilities.

Here I am showing why I can't go "string free" in the "String free" part of the park. I have this ummmm thing about squirrels (just in case you may not have noticed) and I chase them no matter WHAT Mama says. Usually I am very well behaved, EXCEPT when there are squirrels about. Mama is afraid I will chase one across the busy road...so until I learn to stay and come EVEN when there is a squirrel, I will have to stay on my string....SIGH

There are even turtles at Town Lake.

He is swimming to Turtle Rock. Mama says this is like Fraggle Rock...but different!

Before I knew it we were back at the Bye Bye Mobile and had to go back home to see Daddy and Bilbo. Mama made a movie of our walkie if you want to watch.

Note from the Mama:

A lot of you asked about Bilbo and walkies...Bilbo would much rather stay home than go a) bye bye and/or b) for a walk. Bilbo is a home body. I do force talk him into going for walks in the neighborhood and he is a very good walker when I get him out, but he stresses out VERY easily and really worries more about getting back home more than anything else.

Also, thank you to everyone for your support on the no job thing. I really appreciate it and am enjoying my time at home to catch up on household and crafty things...OH and of course keeping Dory and Bilbo up on what all their friends are up to!
