Road Trip!

Tuesday morning mom decided suddenly that she would take me on a road trip!!  She never knows where she is heading but I am with her to try and direct her to keep her from getting lost.   Today I was so excited that I told her to go to the Blue Ridge Parkway and head to the Peaks of Otter again.  The Parkway is having it's 75th birthday and I thought it would be good to celebrate there.

It was a bit cooler here but by time we got there, it was 10 degrees cooler with a nice breeze.   Mom walked me around the lake and to my little house.  We sat on benches and I got on a nice rock.  We met two women with beautiful doggies and they were very nice.  One dog was a young black lab and the other was a young golden retriever.   The women told mom that I was very pretty and asked what kind of dog I was....mom said actually she's a Cockashepalollie aka Cocker Mix!  They got a good laugh out of that one.  It was a great day and I even forgot my snacks.  By time we got back home, we both took a nap.

This was on the way.  Mom stopped to get a picture.

It's hard to see but that's a squirrel!!

The deer were really hard to see in the picture.  There were three of them at my house!

Another view of my house (not mine but I wish it was).

Back at the Lake.

Moving along the path.

This is such a nice pretty bridge.

A nice rock to get on.  I love rocks to climb!

Something really strange scared me here.  Big noises and then something funny looking jumped in the air and made me crash back into mom's leg.   She kept laughing at me.

This was just before we left to go home.  It was a really wonderful day!

Have a Great Day!!
Lots of Love!!!!!!

You got some great pics on your special trip with Mom, Holly - so what was it that jumped out and scared you.

We think that breed name is very unique and if you are one of them, then very beautiful too:)
