February 10, 2024 – Waterfront Public Art Walk, New Bedford – Massachusetts

Last Sunday Wilma, Gus, and I Adventured to the Waterfront Public Art Walk in New Bedford. Massachusetts. This project is brought to the public by New Bedford Creative Org. There are several locations to enjoy a self-guided tour and see artwork including: sculptures, murals, and various other creative work.

We had a colorful Adventure so the Waterfront Public Art Walk. Although we had a map, I do not believe we found all the artwork, and not all the streets were labeled. I do believe it might have been an older map as well, but we did locate the majority of the art. In addition the map did indicate not all art was found on the map.

We began our walk on the waterfront, enjoying the colorful boats bobbing in the sea. There was alot of construction but we were able to locate all of the art on MacArthur Drive. Both Wilma and Gus enjoyed some rolls and posing. We then crossed the busy road to continue our journey. I soon realized it might be alot for Gus as we were entering into a more city like environment, with small roads, more people and increased sounds. However we did explore a bit trying to find all the art we could before turning back around back to the quiet of the waterfront. A good variety in our day in New Bedford (this blog will not be rated).

Weekly Video/Photo

The weekly Video/Photo section highlights an Adventure, while I might also sneak in some that are humorous, adorable, or just other fun dog moments. If you have followed my blog from the beginning you know that I adopted Shadow as a puppy, and about a year later adopted Buster as a puppy.  We had many wonderful years together before experiencing the devastating loss of Buster at just seven.  It took a long time for our hearts to heal, but almost a year after his passing we welcomed little Wilma into our world.  We were devastated to lose Shadow on April 3, 2020.These two precious boys will be furever in our hearts! We were recently thrilled to add another amazing rescue, Gus, to our home on June 28, 2021! This Weekly Video/Photo section will allow me to share photos from all four of my rescues, whether it be a precious memory, or a current moment.

Today’s photo is of Shadow and Wilma on a White Mountains trip, with this photo being taken on Echo Lake. It was taken in the most beautiful time of year – Fall – helping to add quite the colors. I am thankful that Wilma had years with Shadow to show her the trails. Here they are:

January 27, 2024 – Berlin Riverwalk – New Hampshire

Today, Wilma, Gus, and I Adventured to the Berlin Riverwalk in Berlin, New Hampshire. The Berlin Riverwalk was constructed in 2022. It is a handicapped accessible paved path that parallels the Androscoggin River. There are several viewing areas, and benches along the path.

We had a dark but energetic walk on the Berlin Riverwalk. We spent the day in New Hampshire but this was the only new Adventure, so hence one blog. I had seen this Riverwalk back in October after returning from a long daytrip. At that time, it was much prettier being Fall and seeing the rushing water. Today, on the other hand, besides being grey out, the water was frozen and snowed over, leaving a less lovely scene. I recall loving the green iron bridge on my autumn drive through, although today it hardly stood out. Even though the scene was far from spectacular we still enjoyed getting our walk on along this path. We might just have to return in a more scenic season (This blog will not be rated).

Today’s photo is from one of my favorite places – Acadia National Park – with Wilma and Gus. I often try to get there once or twice a year and it never disappoints. The views are stunning and the scenery just gorgeous. Here they are, perfectly posing:

Today’s photo is a snapshot of Wilma and Gus, back when Gus was just a wee puppy :) They are posing next to some lovely wildflowers on one of our Adventures back in the summer of 2021. It is amazing to think Gus was ever so small, and how their connection has grown to being the best of friends. Here they are:

January 15, 2024 – Eureka Schoolhouse and Baltimore Covered Bridge

Today, Wilma, Gus and I Adventured to the Eureka Schoolhouse and Baltimore Covered Bridge in Springfield, Vermont. The Eureka Schoolhouse is the oldest one room Schoolhouse in Vermont. It was originally built in 1790 but later reconstructed. The Baltimore Covered Bridge was originally constructed in 1870 and crossed the Great Brook River, but later was moved to the current location. The Schoolhouse and Bridge are a State Historic Site in Vermont.

We had a simple Adventure to the Eureka Schoolhouse and Baltimore Covered Bridge. We spent much of the day in Vermont, but this Site was our only new location, and therefore the only blog for today. We found the Site easily and wandered around to explore. It was a small area along the River. The brown color of the structures looked bright against the snow and blue sky. We walked around to check out each angle before heading on to our next location. Glad we could check out the Eureka Schoolhouse and Baltimore Covered Bridge today (This blog will not be rated).

Today’s photo is a snapshot of Shadow at the Beach, one of the places he loved! He was my pup that enjoyed swimming the most, always searching for the water on a warm day. I sure miss him and his sweet soul. Here he is:

First Snow of the Season!!

We finally got our first snow of the season in Massachusetts! Wilma and Gus were thrilled to run around and play in this new fluffy fun (haha)! Wilma seemed especially excited which was quite adorable knowing she tends to be the more serious of the two. She loved eating snow, playing ball, and searching for the ball in the snow. Gus loved running around and sitting with his Mama. Both of course made some time for some squirrel chasing, and we took some festive selfies. It was fun to finally enjoy winter, just never ready for shoveling. Hope you all enjoyed the snow as well!
