The Fort Jackson Town Park - Part 1

I took the dogs down the road one hot afternoon for a hike in the Fort Jackson town park. We began where the lovely Big Hollow Brook emptied into the St. Regis River:

I intended to walk up the banks of the brook, just to see where it went, but I was unable to navigate the rocks because of my leg braces. So we had a change of plans:


Instead, we walked across the picnic area to the trail in the forest, all of it along the banks of the St. Regis River:

The trail took us beside the river:

Rock hopping has become both difficult and risky for me because of my awkward leg braces, but little Clover had no such problem:

Seamus didn't even bother with rocks. He loves the water:

It was a pleasant walk in the forest, with the St. Regis River by our side. It was tough on the camera, though, which didn't know what setting to use because of the variety of lighting conditions. I had to take lots of photos and then delete most of them when I got home:

Seamus and Clover walked ahead to sniff for interesting things:

The dogs were overly excited and I had to keep reining them in. But they still had fun:

Jack tried his hand (paw) at rock hopping. There are lots of new experiences for this little shelter rescue:

The dogs ran and played. I just plodded along, taking pictures:

We arrived at private property and turned back. I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
