eYewatch friday- trail markers

hi every bloggie!

Whoohoo! it's finally Friday! Yeah forget hump day, this is my favorite day of the week. This week's eYewatch edition is about one of the rails to trails that I've highlighted before, it's the Assabet River Rail Trail. See there I'm on it right now.

I use it almost every weekend when I go running with mom. And this time of year it is full of color. Almost at peak color... I'll have to take more photos this weekend because it's even more colorful right now. Now that's an eYeful of leaf peeping.

See that?!- when I go running- I have to wear my string. I think mom feels I'll get lost but I won't. You know why? They marked the trail just for me! Put your eYes on these trail markers. Yep just for me! Frogs, bunnies and turtles every other step!

How can I possibly get lost with my eYes on these markers!!!!

Okay.. more leaf peeping along the river.

Can't believe your eYes -can woos?

How about this side... okay I'll flip to my otherside too.

How about that for an eYewatch Friday!

Okay before I go, I want to mention 2 charitable fundraising events.

As you may or may not know, mom works with people with disabilities. She use to work with school aged kids in high skool who were Special Olympians. She knows first hand how important this organization is to the young adults and their families. On October 30th, she is running in the Special Olympics Trick or Trot 10k. I hope I can go, but we have to ask the race director. K9s are allowed to do the 1 mile walk so I don't see why not the run.

This is my special promotional photo- muuaah evil elmo ate me! I bet he thought I was a treat! If you'd like to help out, go to my Special Olympics donation page!

The second announcement is my Ohio pal Sagira is participating in the 2 Million Dog walk on November 7th. If you remember, in June I went to the final mile of the 2000 miles walked by Luke, Murphy and Hudson when they landed in Boston. I'm not sure I'll participate in this walk, but Sagira is participating in the Cincy location. If you liked to help cure canine cancer, go to her Sagira/Jermey's donation page or participate in a city near you.

Okay- and as they say- that's all folks

eYewatch friday & jolly jaunt

hi every bloggie!

I'm doing all I can to get on Santa's good boy list... so last Saturday I enlisted mom in the 10K Jolly Jaunt Road Race to benefit the Special Olympics. She ended up raising $305! Wow Santa will be impressed.
Right in our city, the Special Olympics just opened a brand spanking new facility! It was quite impressive.

Look at all the Jolly Jaunt Special Olympic Reindeers gathered before the race. I don't know but they don't look too happy about running today.

The start line...all are merry right now.

We began the race by recanting the athletes' oath- ""Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt." Since I couldn't run with mom... I was hoping she just finished.

And here is Marlboro's finest... killer boots man and always a DD- Dunkin Donuts coffee in hand.

Here we go.... race day 39 degrees.. a bit chilly but the snow sleet mess held off until the afternoon. Whew...

That's mom- all smiles the first mile. Marlboro is all hills.. and I mean HILLS.

Since it was a JOLLY Jaunt I let mom wear my bell. See it attached to her shoe!?? Take a listen.. the spirit of norwood jolly jaunts too.

There was a cute furry spectator.. I should've come. And the finish line 57:07 was mom's time. And If you don't know, the Special Olympics always throws a great party. A huge breakfast buffet followed the race: sausage, eggs, bacon, bagels, fruit,etc. Everyone put on their feedbag. What huh? no doggie bag? What's up with that

Okay... I think I'll make the good boy list now that WE raised money at the Jolly Jaunt.

And now for Friday's eYewatch

Check this out.. along my trail I was teased and taunted. A goose gang was messing with me. I had my eYe on them but didn't dare mess with that group.

Ridiculous! I'm trying to be good.
