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

trail time tuesday


hi every bloggie!
Not much going on today, so I thought I'd take you on the trail with me.
Be careful on the this agility course, the log bridge is delicately placed on top of a mud pit. It's load of fun when you fall into it.

And now.. some artsy views of the trail!
Abandoned home.
Ice balls .... not harry this time and these are not fun.
A winter sky... it'll be here for a while.. ho hum.

wild ob-ing


hi every bloggie!
Before the blast of winter.. I mean Finter- I hit the Assabet Rail Trail again for a run. I don't know what's up with my ear perks- Kinda girlie looking. I think I need a trim. I'll talk to my groomer.. but that's another story for a different post.
This time when we stopped at the trail head, I noticed something new. Look at all these wild ob(servations)! Poor anipals were stuck in this sign. I had to look closer.. I couldn't believe my eyes.

Seems they were flattened too (kinda like what happened to Eric the square, Asta, Mango, Lacie and Duff on their visit to Boston)
Poor red fox.. he can only shift his eyes.
oh yeah! I tried to put my snooter on this one but he didn't budge.
I've chased one of these before.. nothing nadda.. no movement.
And the fancy fall leaves.. I couldn't crunch with my toes.
Brucethecat... lizard lover- this one's for you. Mom's too short to get a head shot. I licked him.. nothing.
Another fox. Well I've actually seen a live one do this too me on a walkies.
Whoa. I thought this was me for a minute. I am a bit of a scavenger too. Love the bandit look.
And I heard who who! What in the world does he keep asking the same question for? Thankfully we left before I was flattened.
Let's just say.. it was fun visiting them on my run.
See I do look like that raccoon.
