It seems like it's been ages since the last time we came! I've got to check out all the new smells!
Is anybody home?!
Mom couldn't resist taking pictures of the cute Dutchman's Breeches~
And some pretty purple violets~
Nature calls! It calls us a lot while we're on our hike here! It must be all of these fantastic smells!
This is a grove of Mountain Laurels! The Mountain Laurel is Connecticut's state flower! It will be in bloom soon but right now it's still a wee bit too early yet! Mom loves all the corkscrew trunks!
Mitch and dad stayed ahead of us the whole time! Dad says that Mitch practically pulls him up the mountain! Lucky dad - mom ends up practically dragging me up the mountain because I need to sniff absolutely EVERYTHING! 
There's the castle! Yeaaaaaaaaa - we made it to the top!
What a perfect walk we had! Can you see that beautiful blue sky?! And what makes the day even more perfect is that Mitch and I hear that we're having ooonies for dindin!
So until next time.................
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Wow! You guys had quite a day outside! We've been loving the beautiful weather too - but we have never seen a mountain up close and personal like you and Mitchy.
ReplyDeleteI like the mountain laurel and the way its trunk curls. And the wild violets, we have some like that here, too. Nice walk you had!

That is so cool you get to go on walks and stuff with your humans. My mum might take me to a lake or something this summer. Daddy is getting ready for the rodeos next weekend, so he has been too busy riding horses. I hope summer comes soon!

ReplyDeleteYou look like true trail dogs in your cool harnesses. And, that sky is as blue as a GooberStanian sky. I felt like I was home (actually, I WAS home, but you get what I mean).
I hope someday to trek up Sleeping Giant with you guys. Who knows? It could happen.
Goober love & smooches,
Stanley

Hi, Maggie and Mitch -
ReplyDeleteWhat a great place to take walkies. Mama and Papa take me (Hershey) to Central Bark (a local park in our town) and Fort Griswold State Park - we can walk to get there from our house!
Mama says that yes she has heard of Wallingford, Durham and North Haven. Mama and Papa bought a new car in Wallingford.
Love -
Hershey
Hi, Maggie and Mitch -
It's nice to meet you. I (Kaci) live in New Hampshire with my Mama. We are finally getting rid of all the snow we had this winter. Have a good weekend.

ReplyDeleteBye for now.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great walking spot. I bet it felt good to stretch your legs and get some fresh air after a long winter.
ReplyDeleteWow what a great hike! I love hiking. We have some of those violets and dutchman's britches too! The mountain laurel branches look like a work of art. Can't wait to see those in bloom.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun day you had!
