Puppies! Lighthouse! OOOh!

 

Yesterday was a rainy one.  Lots of solo trips too.  The other 4 members went off to Whitefish point museum and look around the area. We went off to Crisp Lighthouse but we had a detour.  We stumbled upon a little house that trains sled dogs!  Here’s her website www.midogtours.com.  It was really neat to see how Laura trains her pups, the gear and the 4 types of sled races.  We also got to meet her team.  She uses American Huskies which are Siberian mix.  She basically said they are more for their athleticism than show.  We also got to hold 5 and 10 week old puppies.  They were so cute..and bitey! After we had our tour, we had to let the boys out to stretch their legs.  They did so well being in the car for an hour. 

Now we were off to Crisp Lighthouse…

The road was mostly a dirt road but this was Buckley’s first offroad experience.  He did rather well.  There were lots of turns, bumps and rattles.  Nothing really bothered him.  He just cuddled up next to Zeke.  Now Zeke never liked the bumps and whatnot. When we got up to the lighthouse, John went up into it while we sat on the ground.  I am not a big fan of heights so I watched the pups.  Then we took the pups to the beach and walked about. It was time to go home and eat so we arrived back about 5:30pm.  I think we started our day around noon. 

 

Today Trish and Brandan are on their way home and packing as I type.  Not sure what the plan is today.  Kind of interested in the Bear thing. We’ll see what the consensus will be. Anywho…coffee and soon a dog walk and feeding!

 

A presto!
