Hiking in Thunderstorms

Make note of the pritty blue skies yesterday morning on our hike.

Pritty blue skies...

Common up here mom, seeniks with pritty blue skies!

See how pritty!

We could even see New York City from the mountain we was on.

Ahhh, a refreshing pool fur cooling my furs.

Shaking in the sunbeams after my dip in the pool.

Falling waters fur Frankie Furter.  (Woof that fast 10 times, BOL)

My new furrend Gus and skritches from his dad.  Check it out, we both has rippling muscle thighs of steel! 

Oops.

Oh noes!  I snootered around fur them but did not find them.

Snek #1 - a black rat snek.

Snek #2 - a garter snek.

Howdy!

Hmmmmm.  Where did those dark clouds come from ofur the swamp?

All of a sudden.....

Yes, furrends, my head furs and ears was getting wet, NOOOOOOOOO!  Mom put her camera in a Ziploc baggie then in her backpack with a rain cover ofur her backpack.  Wot about me?  Mom sayed "Oh, you will be fine."  The camera gets covered and not ME?  Then we had lightning bolts and thunner boomers, YOWZER!

A long, long, long while later.... Wet Shawnee.  Unhappy wet Shawnee...

.... until, I so crashed this pawtay at the pond, BOL.  My new furrend Levi - I think I see some fambly resemblances.

This little pibble puppeh was doing kissy face with me...

... and bitey face.  Fun times!

More furrends ofur by the campfire!  Fun, fun, fun!

Then we had to head back to our car.  Looks like that storm be pulling out.

The storm left some rainbows behind.

Back home I be in my hidey spot napping after getting hosed down (Why when I got rained on? Did mom think I was not wet enuff?) and hasing SEBENTEEN tickies pulled off of me!  And that be with tick pawventative stuff on me.  So my sis Dixie be doing the honors of showing the litter we picked up.  She be shaking her paw at those nasty litterbugs.  I hope my pawty furrends did not leave any litter behind.

Mini Monday Hike and the Chiropractor on Wednesday

So coz Monday was a howliday I had my monthly chiropractor tune-up on today, Wednesday.  And coz the chiropractor be far away from my house in hiking country, we did our usual mini hike furst.  This be only a 2 mile hike around a lake but we seened lots of cool stuffs.

So right away we seened this Red-winged Blackbird when we was crossing the dam.

Then the trail got kind of icky coz it went right by a bizzy road.  Even though there was a fence, I keeped mom on the walking string coz you just never knowed if'n there would be a hole in the fence she could squeeze through and get over by the cars and get deaded.

Then we seened a chip monkey.

Then we seened a turtle on a rawk in the lake.

There was some pritty iris flowahs by the lake.

There was lots of Canada gooses there but they was not happy to see me.  I think lots of them was babies all growned up now coz they was so big you could not tell which ones was babies and which ones was pawrents.  When the babies was eggs, a furrend of mom's took a picture of the eggs and some doodyhead had writed on the eggs with MAGIC MARKER!  I guess if'n some doodyhead had writed on my egg afore I hatched, I would not take too kindly to visitors either.

Lots more gooses.  There was even more but they did not all fit in the camera.

We still had lots of time before my appointment when we finished so we sat at a picnic table and watched the show that the swans put on fur us so I made you a little slideshow of it.  (Click here if'n you cannot see the slideshow below.)

Then we got to Mike's Feed Farm where my chiropractor appointment is and we was still too early but they was showing movies.  I show you a bit of what I was watching.

Then my chiropractor, Dr. Marc, came and he always starts off my appointment with CHICKEN JERKY!  DROOL!

Here I is getting lined back up.  Becoz of Dr. Marc I did my whole Furginia hiking trip, all 75 miles of hiking, without getting gimpy or limpy at all!  (My last few trips I got all limpy and gimpy towards the end but that was before I started going to Dr. Marc.)  Thank you Dr. Marc!

Memorial Day Hiking

Happy Memorial Day efurrybuddy!  Betcha didn't know that before my time my mom used to ride in Rolling Thunder to Washington D.C. on a HARLEY to The Wall to honor the fallen soldiers.  She did not drive, she was a passenger, on the back seat.  Oh, yikes, was I supposed to tell that mom used to be a biker babe, BOL?  Well, that was in the olden days, now we go hiking.

I could not stand closer to the sign coz the ground was all swampy from all the rains we had.

I do not need any Mutt Mitts (coz I is not going to poo) but I is just checking pee-mail.

This do be the Devil's Half Acre Boulders.

Still more Devil's Half Acre Boulders.

Ahhhh, cooling off my furs in Roaring Rock Creek.

What a huge pile o' rawks.

This fence in the middle of the woods do look brokened.

There was lots of boardwalks coz it be furry muddy but they did not work...

.... see?

I see a pond...

... and I be just in time fur the Memorial Day Pawrade!

There was pawrade musics:  ♫ HONK ♫ HONK ♫ HONK ♫ HONK ♫

Oops.

Mr. Turtle was in the pawrade, too.

And I is pritty sure the deer would has been in the pawrade too but I think they got lost and was in somebuddy's front yard.  They look confuzzled, no?

I went to clean my furs off at the other side of the pond so I would not disrupt the pawrade.
