Walkin' on Wednesday

 So our adventure this week was on Wednesday

And we went over to Byrd Park to walk the

Dogwood  Dell Trail

 Dad and Teka took off down the trail.  

This is truly an urban park, there is city

all around it.  But it is hard to tell that here.

 Ummm....wait up guys. 

I want to go this way.

 Lots of places where you could see

this cute little stream

 And one place where me and Teka

decided to get up close and personal.

 Teka was gonna go wading again

 And I was just sniffing when I got water in my nose!

 Ummm...does this bridge make my butt look big?

 So then Dad spotted this place off to one side of the 

road/trail.  And we decided to explore some.

Muzzer was not happy about the warning sign that 

was talking about things like snakes, and sheer rock 

face walls, etc. 

We all reminded her this was supposed to be an

ADVENTURE!

And she agreed to go just a little way down the trail.

 Boy, was she glad she did.  We saw these growing on a 

fallen tree trunk.

 I got to sniff some more flowers.

And we saw this neat building.

It used to be part of the water pumping system

for the city of Richmond.  And once upon 

a time, they used the top floor as a dance 

hall!   Now it is just abandoned looking, 

but still has good bones and lots of class.

Just like a lot of Southern Ladies we know.
