Taking our Canine Visitor on a Sightseeing Tour

Since we are a full service doggy B&B, we took our house guest Mario to Great Falls Park yesterday for a long sightseeing walk. As far as stimulation for canine noses goes, that is a great place to visit - but see for yourselves:
Mr. Budelheimer will be our tour guide for the day.

Madame Tessa assures our guest that it's perfectly safe on the viewing platform and he does not have to worry about the river coming up over the walls. (Mario didn't get to see the Potomac a few days ago, when the water was really dangerously high ! )

This was yesterday's view of the river. The rocks of the waterfall are beginning to reappear again.

Mario was following our tour guide Rodney, and as we were walking . . .



. . . rocks had to be climbed (Here you can see Mario's climbing instructor, Bicalina) . . .


. . . and all in a sudden it began to snow . . .The fearless bunch pressed on and enjoyed some views along the way . . .


Tessa and Rodney lead the way through the frozen swamp . . .



. . . taking our guest by the paw and guiding him safely through the wilderness . . .
Towards the end, the path was covered in snow and it was time to get on the road and head on home.
