Camping on Memorial Day - Part 1

The weekend was mostly cloudy, and pretty wet part of the time.  However, there were some sun breaks and we took full advantage of them.  We didn't get to go for as many walks as usual, but we still had a good time. 

The first thing Higgins did was claim the bed as his own.  He must have forgotten the rules :)  Don't worry, the Duchess set him straight right away!

While Higgins was claiming the big bed, Sir Bear claimed Mister higgins' bed!  Ha, ha, ha!  That'll teach that young whippersnapper :)

This is the only picture out of about 50, where we are both actually facing the Duchess.  We were far too busy checking all the smells to worry about looking good for the camera.

Remember my friend Friday?  He has really mellowed out over the last year. His sister Jazzy is very much like Higgins. She doesn't like other dogs too much.  Ok, not at all. . .

This is a new friend.  She is 12 years old and her name is Isla.  The Duchess loved her.  (The Duchess loves all of them!)

This little Jack Russell is named Henry.  He is a newcomer this year too.  What a doll.

We have met this beauty before. Her name is Malika.  She really is gorgeous.  Of course, not as beautiful as a Queen, but still very pretty.

Henry was the most friendly towards other dogs. He often had a thoughtful look on his face as if trying to figure out how to get everyone to play with him.

The Duchess took the next two pictures out of the truck window.  The deer were right on the side of the road in the park.  It was awfully nice of them not to run away so she could get some pictures.

This one looks like she may be pregnant.  Yay!  More baby deers :)

This is Isla getting the last drop of beer from her Mom's bottle.  I don't know what beer tastes like but Isla sure seemed to want that droplet!

Next time I will tell you all about the Bat Nursery we saw.  That's where they raise baby Bats.  Really, they do.  And I have some pictures of a horse that we met too.  So, until then . . . . Thanks for stopping by!

Kisses,
