The head shot right before he almost ate it...face first!
Looking for ants as usual!
Throwing rocks into the creek
Ross Bridge
Here are the other pictures from our day at the "Choo Choo" Park; below the train area is a trail that leads down through the woods, by the creek, and over the bridge. The scenery is so beautiful down there! I tried getting several "portrait style" pictures of Jake by the creek, but my clumsy little fellow tripped and almost went face first into the creek, so I had to stop. Oh well, next time. He did get to enjoy throwing rocks and sticks into the creek, though...such a boy!
Here is a little information about Ross Bridge for you history buffs:
"Ross Bridge derives it's name from the pages of Alabama's history. During the Civil War, the owner of the land at the time, James Taylor Ross, allowed the Confederate Army to build a railroad supply line through his property. In order to complete the railway, a bridge had to be constructed to span Ross Creek. The little stone bridge still stands today over Ross Creek and is marked with a historic site marker."
