Morning Walk At Grant Park
"Enter this wild wood and view the haunts of nature"
Keeley's grandma had to MAKE him look at me for this picture. He just wanted to GO! GO! GO!
We haven't been to Grant Park since last year so this was like a new adventure for Keeley. Since we decided that we're done with the local dog parks, we've been trying to take Keeley on different walks to exercise his brain at the same time as exercising his body.
They call this "The Seven Bridges Trail" but I don't know why because there are more than seven bridges.
Keeley had to do a few drops of marking every 20-30 feet or so. Maybe he was worried that we'd get lost so he was leaving like a trail of breadcrumbs for his nose. He's crazy like that.
There are a bunch of different paths to choose from. A few of them lead to Lake Michigan. Keeley is usually scared of waves but it was a pretty calm morning.
I'm not sure what Keeley was looking for but I usually like to look for a pretty rock or two to take with me. I didn't have enough pockets today though.
Keeley likes to be the leader. If I sneak ahead of him, he charges at me to get ahead again.
There were these little purple wildflowers growing everywhere.
This is my favorite part of spring/summer. I just love the way the trees all look right now. I love that light green color and I like how since the leaves are still small, a lot of sunlight filters through. Plus the mosquitoes aren't out yet!
I think Keeley enjoyed this walk. He looks happy to me!
