A trip to the Rail Trail
We started out yesterday morning all gung ho and ready to go swimming at the reservoir. I had been telling Marley for 2 days that she FINALLY gets to go swimming. Unfortunately, we realized that we didn’t have the gas to make it to East Canyon and had to turn around and go fill up. The road to the reservoir is windy and there were lots of bikes so Paul didn’t want to head back up there after all that. We opted for the rail trail. It was fairly close and a good choice. Paul and Leon had never been there before.
Dylan and Marley in heaven with plenty of space to get out and move. I don’t know how people tolerate living in places that don’t have open space!
Marley with a face full of stickers. She doesn’t seem to be too bothered by them though!

Good dogs holding a stay while the bikers passed by!

Funny Miss Marley running in the grass! This picture cracks me up!!
Dylan making splashes in a small pond. The one downfall of this place is that the trail is lined by barbed wire. All the dogs made it through without getting any cuts or scrapes but one time Dylan came home all cut up after walking here. I try to keep him on our side of the barbed wire but couldn’t help but let them play in this little pond (see the barbed wire in the middle).
This is Marley’s signature move. I think it’s her way of saying “I’m wet and therefore must roll in dirt”
This is the man I love
He’s so good to come out in the heat of the day when he really hates it. He’d rather be out there in 5 ft of snow
All in all it was a great walk! I’m so glad that the dogs found some water here and there. I didn’t want to cut it short. Sunday’s are my only day that I really have time to go out and take the dogs somewhere fun and exciting!
Looks like lots of fun!
How very cool! Looks like an awesome time. I love all the pictures and it is so good to see Marley out having fun after all she has been through recently.
Thanks! It was a lot of fun! Marley is still limping a lot but she doesn’t let that bother her!
