Back from the Finger Lakes

Thursday morning we left bright and early to drive to Watkins Glen, NY. The drive was so pretty and the pugs were nice and quiet...a real bonus! We checked in at our cabin and headed out right away to Robert Tremen state park.

Things didn't start out so good. Walking across a stone bridge, coming into the park Kittie went to jump up on the bridge, but jumped right *over* the stone railing and was hanging for a second by her leash and collar.....I pulled her back up and over and she was completely unphased! I however was not!......especially as this is what we were hiking in. Rocky trails with old stone steps and railings (just like what she jumped over) built around, up and down the gorge with huge drops.


It's hard to tell here, but those little specks above the warterfalls are people, to give a better idea of the scale of the place.

The ever intense Abby. Down at the bottom of the gorge.

Rudy, Kittie, Abby & Willy.

Kittie looking cool as a cucumber...what's the big deal mom?!

weeeeeeeeee



More Later.

Dreaming of vacation

this place looks absolutely perfect www.sheepdung.com seriously I can't imagine anywhere could be better.

What I need to find is somewhere just like "sheep dung estates" that's just a wee bit closer, for an extended weekend. I'm trying to put together a little agility trial/hiking/eating way too much vacation in the finger lakes to coincide with a 4 day trial held there at the end of September, but so far it looks like I'm late on this, as all the nice houses and cottages are booked up, at least for the weekends.
