Journey to Indian Valley Open Space...


Sammie here - I LOVE this place and wanted to bring Avalon to see it, cause I only get to go here after a big rain! There's a creek here that fills up then and I knew we'd have a pawesome time! The adventure began the moment we got out of the Sammie-mobile - a big, huge horse/doggeh clip-clopped by and it was suure interesting!



The moment we passed by the gate, Avalon found a stick and lay down in the creek to gnaw on it for a bit!


Then she got up all alert from her stickie reveries and checked out the scene!

I was watchin' closely, fur I had so much more to show her! She just loved that stickie!

A cool bridge! I showed her what was up the trail a bit and then we crossed back over it to Mom and Dad.

Then a ways up the road, we found a cool trail that wound up and up through a thick forest, where we ran and ran.

We finally got to a beautiful meadow, where we just had to take some time to have some pawesome zoomies!

Wild Zoomies! Bitey face zoomies!
Then, all of a sudden, we heard some sounds we knew we should investigate...
Sure enough... some cuzzies... maybe! We hung out with them for a while and had lots of fun in the creek!

The sun began to go down and we headed back for the car. What a bootiful day on Indian Valley Trail!


Thanks for all your wonderful comments about Ozzie! She continues to do wonderfully well and as mentioned in our last post, gets her stitches out Tuesday morning!

The photo of Avalon lying in the creek with her stick is priceless, and the one of "bitey face" was hysterical!

Kate said...

Thank you for sharing your adventure or journey to Indian Valley Open Space... I don't go out much of my rabbit hutch for it is also dangerous for me to go out much. But your adventure makes me travel already.
