Brittany Spaniel Artwork

 

S got a new app -  SketchMe! app by Bluebear for iPhone. 

He sent me his first sketch - of Byam. 

Dog Day at Work -

 

Byam got to spend the day with her Boy at work.  She really likes to sit up on the desk, to get a better view of what is happening in the office.   Although no other dogs were there to visit with, a number of co-workers stopped by to say hello. 

She had a great day - dog friendly office!

Brittany and Bison

Jester Park has a new viewing area with a few elk and bison. 
The bison kept Byam amused for some time.

Byam is scheduled to go hunting this weekend for her birthday but don’t tell her we want to have it as a surprise for her.

Summer of 2012 - More Mackinac Island - Dog Friendly

Unbelievably dog accomodating!  
My feet were tired from walking all about the island, but just were not ready to leave.  So we decided to buy tickets for the horse-drawn carriage tour.  I'm not really excited about riding around with canned tours led by bored guides repeating the same jokes 6 times daily.  So my expectations were low, yet we were going to tour parts of the State Park that we'd not yet walked.  And with dogs welcome - were excited to take our Brittany Spaniel with us for an open air ride.

 

The horses were not surprised to have a puppy on board, so we took a photo of Byam with the three strong horses nearing the end of their day.  

 

Such a nice day!

 

We stayed until the last ferry which whisked us back to St. Ignace.

 

 

Summer of 2012 - Mackinac Island with Byam

 

Dogs are welcome here!  Thank you Michigan - great place to vacation if your family includes your puppy.  We listed to the information about the canons.  When we watched the demonstration on the parade grounds.  Byam was a bit bored there listening to all that talking and trying to stay still...until the very end when the guns were fired.  She was pulling at her leash to get over to the bushes and spent half an hour searching for pheasants.

 

We took a break from looking at the fort on Mackinac Island to wade in Lake Superior.
