Gary's Outdoor Wanderings2

This blog is a visual record of my outings into the streams, lakes and forests of Tennessee and North Carolina by canoe, motor boat and motorcycle. I love photography and use that venue to record wildlife and wilderness scenes for my personal enjoyment. I enjoy writing short stories also and do so while out in the forests or on the lakes. I also am addicted to dogs as will be apparent as you read my blog. But, the canoe is my favorite means of escape and wilderness camping is a joy.

"Climb aboard and hang on Happy. I'll get you back to dry land"

This is an amazing little dog. She is smart as a tack. Loves the water

Happy is a Terrier of sorts. Terriers are not really noted for turning into great swimmers. Her desire to be with Douglas overpowers her desire to stay on the dry land.

Talk about team work! Give me a break. This is so cute I couldn't pass up the picture

Happy has become quite an accomplished swimmer. Look at her go!

What a pair!!

Douglas has his paws full with Happy

They struggled over this stick for over twenty minutes. Constant running and swimming. Endless energy.

What great fun! Out in the middle of nowhere and having all this wonderful entertainment. I'm very lucky.

A hard day of swimming, chasing friends and swimming, and chasing friends and swimming. Whew! A gentle breeze wafts across the deck and Douglas can't keep his eyes open.
