My friend Kelleen and I have had a heck of a time getting together lately. So this morning we were able to connect with our dogs and head over to St. Edwards State Park. I was pretty sure St. Edwards was only used for beer festivals since that's the only time I've ever been. But there are a RIDICULOUS amount of trails out there, and it leads right down to Lake Washington. So, since Kelleen takes her dog Gracie there often, we decided to go check it out. It's an on-leash dog park, but the trails are great, and we have good dogs, so it was an off leash trail for us.
You go STRAIGHT down the side of the "hill" and then you hit the water, which Hank loved. Since Marymoor has had the stupid salmon spawning going on, Hank hasn't swam in months. And then we hiked back UP a different trail. It was an AWESOME hike today, and Hank and Gracie (and Kelleen & I) had a BLAST! It is a beautiful fall Saturday in the Puget Sound. Sunshine, blue skies, 40 degrees...it's great! Lattes in hand, we were good to go. The dogs ran up and down and up and down, and wow was it fun!
Now that Hank is all exhausted, it's time for the annual vet exam this afternoon. I can't believe we've had him for a year already! What a great dog!
Hank loved Gracie, and hopefully the wagging tail bruises on Kelleen's leg heal soon enough...
