Thanks,
Clara

I'll put some more details in another post...
HOPEFULLY she'll get an E-mail alert to revisit this thread.
If anyone knows her PHONE number - give her a call to look here.

NOTE**** PREVIOUS POST is for CLARA ONLY!!
She's coming from Buffalo, New York -
EVERYone else disregard that route - you'll get **LOST**!
=================================================
CLARA ~
Pick up an OHIO State Map at the Info Booth
on I-90 when you cross into Ohio!
And ADD these details to the above post -
suggest you print both the previous post and this one.
23. Turn RIGHT onto OH-568. (0.50 miles)
. . (You'll be headed WEST towards the City of Findlay)
24. Turn LEFT onto TOWNSHIP HIGHWAY 241. (0.16 miles)
. . There's a "Hancock Parks / Riverbend" sign here;
. . and you can see an "Antique, Rickety Bridge" that you'll cross over.
. . Cross the Bridge and you come to a STOP sign at Township Rd 208.
25. Turn LEFT onto TOWNSHIP HIGHWAY 208. (0.63 miles)
. . See "Riverbend Rec Area" sign as soon as you turn Left onto Twp Rd 208
. . Drive past a "Ranger Station" on your left and the road will force you
. . to turn 90 degrees right.... slow down!
26. Turn RIGHT into the FIRST Driveway / Entrance to "the Lodge" -
. . a New & Fancy Pavilion/Meeting Building that sits close to the road.
"Our PT Headquarters" Pavilion # 7 is the First Shelter you'll be looking
at as you enter the parking lot.
There are also small, yellow signs for the Dog Park.
NOTE: to see & Print a Detailed map of the Findlay & Dog Park vicinity...
Start with www.MapQuest.com
*click* "MAPS"
Enter this location in each box:
Address = [ Township Road 207 AND Township Road 208 ]
City = [ Findlay ]
State = [ OH ]
Zip can be left blank
You'll get a SUPER Zoomed-in map showing a corner of the Findlay
Reservoir (Looks like a Square, Blue, Lake) with the "Lacation Star"
about 1/4 mile south of wher the Dog Park actually IS.
The Dog Park is about where the [208] box is on this map.
ZOOM - OUT 1 step at a time to see slightly larger areas..
Twp Rd 241 is labeled if you get the Zoom & Centering "just right".
Pay Attention to the MapQuest MILEAGE at each step
If you "ask" any of the "Natives" for help - you're going to
the Hancock County Park District's "RiverBEND Recreation Area" -
"east" and a touch "south-east" of Findlay (and in Marion Township).
Another Landmark is the "Big Findlay Reservior".
================================================
Got it Phred - many thanks!! Sorry about the blonde moment of not posting my email address :o
See everyone tomorrow.
Clara
Don't know if any of you who are going have seen it, but HERE is the reason why.
I'm going to miss you all terribly. I wish everyone could just come to our house (I really need some comfort from all my friends and their furkids). We have a big yard and even a "time out" pen for anyone who gets out of line:p And of course I have lot of doggie treats and the hamburgers all ready in the fridge (but Debbie will be picking them up so you all don't go hungry...hope you like them!).
Have a great day guys and keep us in your prayers.
I hope no one minds, but I have decided to go and keep my dear friend Anna company tomorrow. Tori and I have decided to go and cheer up Auntie Anna! :D We know she is worried about Angus and feeling a bit bummed about missing the dog park meeting so we are headed her way and hoping to ease her mind a bit.
I hope everyone understands. I will miss you all and hope you have a great time. Please give all the pups a hug from me and hopefully we will catch you all at the next get together.
We love ya, Anna and will see you tomorrow.......Robin and Tori :)
aawww we send our Love to all!
We will miss you both!
I hope everyone has a great time tomorrow! Don't forget to take lot's of pictures:D
I hav enot gone to see what is going on yet, but I'm sorry you won't be making it, and understand Robin's decision to visit you instead as well. I hope Angus is okay...I'm off to findout what is going on...
This was my first time at the Bark Park and I took a few pictures when I first arrived and then just got so caught up in the visiting that I forgot all about my camera:eek: Hopefully Kay and some others did much better but I will get ya'll started by posted the few I DID take:D
When we first arrived, we were greeted by THIS guy - I asked "are you Phred??" and he answered "I dunno"

But he was with these two cuties that I recognized as Cinder and Smoke:D

This was my contribution to the food table - being the ONLY cat person there - I thought it was appropriate:rolleyes: They were all good sports and ate it too:p

Here's Gabbiegirl but I sorta chopped of Gabbie:o

Here's the only picture I remembered to take before I got to yakking and eating!!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...kparkfolks.jpg
If I remember the folks I met - this is Clara, Snoopy on the table, some ladies I can't remember Diana, Staci, and Keegan grabbing the shadiest spot in the park:D
I think PT folks are some of the nicest folks on the planet.:D On the way, we stopped to visit with Anna and Mark and met Huney and Roxey - also met up with Kay and her dad, Ken and the adorable Kiara. Kay and Ken were going to head back to Anna & Mark's with "doggie bags" of food for them and Robin who spent her day keeping Anna company.
~Enjoy~ Sorry I did not take more but this should whet your appetite for what will follow:p
We are home now too and I will see what I can do to get some pictures uploaded. We were some of the last to leave, about 8:30. Staci was leaving the same time we were and Phred still had to put his things in the car, but was heading out too.
As usual, it was a fun day for all...lots of playing, and stealing treats for the dogs, and good food and converstion for the humans. I think everyone went home happy, tired and full :)
Keepin eyes peeled for more pics and news.!!!
I have all the pictures on the computer now, but have to put them on imagestation, which we all know can be a pain in the rear...
In the mean time, here are a videos...
