A Happy Rest Stop At The Keene Cemetery

The dogs and I were on our way home from a weekend visit up to the farm. The day was beautiful, so when I reached the intersection of Routes 9 and 73 in the Keene Valley, I had to stop and take yet another photo of my favorite scene:

And since it was so lovely, I also drove up into the Keene Cemetery to give the dogs a rest stop and myself a great view of the surrounding mountains. I parked, put poop bags in my pocket and let the dogs out. Wally seemed to appreciate the clean air even though he couldn't see much of anything:

And the views were spectacular:

Seamus and the Papillons trotted around, sniffing everything:

A bit of running and playing followed:

And then more sniffing:

Old Winky and Wally couldn't appreciate the views, but I sure enjoyed them as I kept a watch on the dogs:

The younger dogs had settled into some serious sniffing:

But it was just a quick rest stop, and I called the dogs back to the car:

The three "Silly Sisters" resisted. They'd have preferred playing for several more hours:

  Winky couldn't hear me, so I waved my arms and clapped. By the way, don't fail to notice those majestic Adirondack peaks:

I got all the dogs loaded up into the car, counted noses several times and took one last look at the spectacular scenery. Then we were on our way once again:
