    Vacation Part I -A Trip to Hell (Michigan, that is!) Updated with new pictures, pg 2

    This past week we rented a cottage in Michigan and finally had a vacation that the puupers got to go along on! What a fun time we had! The place was absolutley perfect for the dogs, with scces to the lake for swimming, lots of places to hike and plenty of sunshine to relax and enjoy!

    Part II of our vacation starts next Satruday, when Ralph and I off to Disney World with the dance studio to perform at Magic Kingdom, unfortunetly, the dogs don't get to tag along for that. But while I am back to work to 5 days (and off to minneapolis for 2 of those days!), they will be at home with Ralph, overseeing the bedroom remodeling (new paint and carpet who-hoo!)



    Welcome to Hell!

    Our last day there, we had a few visitors...






    I'm not sure how, but it appears my dad managed to avoid all the pictures!!! Maybe my mom or Christy got some they can add.

    Great pictures, Amy! I am just loading mine onto Shutterfly so I will have to post them tomorrow. Thanks for helping make yesterday easier for us by inviting us to spend the day with you. It was loads of fun!

    Did Tucker Go swimming? Now did you mean did Tucker go out in the water on his own or did someone take him out and he had to swim back? Here he is thinking about it.


    Hmm, should I or shouldn't I?




    Tempt me with a ball, huh?


    Here comes Cincy - she sure makes it look easy


    Got any advice for me, Cincy?

    Hehe, so was I. But now that I did I am completely jealous. It looks like a great vacation and exactly the kind of thing I have been wanting to do with Ginger for the past two years. Great pictures! I am glad you had such a good time. The visitors look like they really enjoyed themselves, too. Tucker is going to be keeping up with the girls in the water in no time.

    Have fun in Disney World, try to keep cool.

    Me too. The place where the cabin & lake was actually in Hell,
    Michigan?

    The cabin looked great & so were the pictures of the pups. It was nice that
    your "company" was able to join you.

    The actual address of the cabin was Pinckney, Michigan. From there is was a mile up to the post office in Hell. At least 1 morning, the dogs and I walked to Hell and back!!

    I love it. I asked because it looks like a place I would enjoy as well.

    Have fun at Disneyland.

    I don't know if anyone will see these pictures or not but here are some more

    Christy taking Jasmine out on the Kayak

    Christy running into the dock with the kayak


    A hazy picture of grandfather and grandson


    Dominic didn't like the way the sidewalk felt under his barefeet so he walked tiptoe all the time - it was so funny


    Oh, my goodness is Christy going to throw Dominic like they did to Tucker to see if he can swim?
