Weekend in Connecticut - Day 2

Saturday morning started with an outing to Litchfield, CT.
A beautiful colonial town with it's own white stemple church on the village green.


Then there was shopping....
and we waited.

More shopping...


And even more shopping....

Even though I promised to keep my tail in check - Mom was afraid I'd swing through
the antique shops and knock every thing over. So Due and I waited...AGAIN.


What can I say - I think I was meant for the country life!

We hope you enjoyed your Labor Day weekend as well.


A special thanks to Tom (Due's Dad) for keeping us
company while the Moms shopped! (And shopped)

Weekend in Connecticut- Part 1

We're packed and ready and hitting the road...to Connecticut!

Due and his peeps have spent an entire week relaxing at a lake house in Bethlehem, CT.
Mom and I headed up to join them for the weekend.

The most important word being LAKE of course.

(NOTE: Abbs was allowed to de-cone for the drive once she settled into the car)

Check out this lake. I was so excited I ran ahead and forgot to let Mom take off the cone.
I just had to check things out. A dock - a canoe - a LAKE.

Oops. Guess I should have waited for the de-coning before jumping in!

Due is NOT a fan of the water - so he had to check me over once I was back safely on the dock.

Then it's back to the deck for the rubdown.
Mom gave me a serious toweling off. Due wanted no part of this. Per vet's instructions Mom dried me off and then some! I could lay here all afternoon for a rubdown. The ears were flushed and cleaned. I was then allowed to dry off in the sunshine - au natural.
Yes - this is the portrait of one Happy Dog!

We had a great time with Due and the Peeps. We got home a few hours ago and promise to post more pictures of our adventures tomorrow.

Time to nap. Weekends in Connecticut are exhausting!
