Rain, Rain, Go Away!!

It has been raining here for at least a week straight...not to mention the on and off rainy days before that. The rain isn't supposed to stop until Sunday!! I hadn't been able to walk Marathon for 2 days. Which means, she's pretty much unstandably wild. Since it's pouring all the time, we play rough in the house and in the yard if it's raining lighter. However, it's just not the same as a good run or walk! Yesterday, the rain finally stopped for a short time, so we headed out for a walk. We were quite surprised by what we found on our trails:


This is a view from the trail just down from our house. The river is normally down a deep imbankment. Normally that is a large street in front of the houses! Luckily, our house is up a big hill from here, so we should be safe!


That would normally be an open, dry field.



This is the start of the other trail we do. It wraps around the Bridgeport City Park, which is now closed down.

Another part of the trail....notice the picnic table!

This is another part of our trail....if you look closely you can see some ducks swimming right where we would normally walk!
