Wetlands Trail with Duke (& Laz)

Hi Everyone, I've had a visitor at my house. His name is Duke, and he's a long-haired mini Doxie. He stayed with us while his family went on Spring Break. My Momma and his Dad work together. Even though the weather is cold right now (it's snowing!), we did get a couple nice days. So Momma and Dad took us on the Wetlands Trail. The trail is so much prettier in the summer when everything is green. But we were just happy to get out.
Oops, Duke went off the trail! I think he got thirsty.


Ewww, smell that country air! (There were cow pastures nearby.)



Isn't this a good picture of my foster brother, Lazarus? He was really enjoying himself too!




Yep, I went off the trail too. It wasn't cause I was thirsty...I just love the water!



Hey - there's critters down there!






Until Next Time! Apollo...Out!

Wetlands Hike

Here's another chapter of Adventures with Apollo. I went on a hike with Mommy and Daddy and Tootsie. We decided to check out this new wetlands trail that contains 2 miles of boardwalk through the wetlands. It was way cool.

Here's a picture of me posing on the boardwalk.



Here's a picture of me and Daddy posing at one of the lookout platforms.


Here's a picture of one of the deeper parts of the wetlands. Don't worry, they actually had rails through this part.

Here's me posing at one of the other lookout platforms.


And here's me and Tootsie strolling down the boardwalk.


Mommy also shot some video of me at the Blue Heron lookout platform. As you can see, I wasn't too interested. I wanted to keep walking.

Sadly enough we didn't get a picture of Mommy falling into the swampy wetlands, getting covered with mud, and then getting bit by a snake. Unfortunately she was the one taking the pictures, therefore holding the camera, which luckily was able to be salvaged. My Mommy sure is a trooper though. Despite that little disaster, she said she still had fun and can't wait to go back.
