Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, Felton, California

Finnegan and Nella seem to be walking themselves, but I guess that’s just the way it is in San Francisco’s oldest park (founded in 1867) – Buena Vista Park. The park is dog friendly, so off leash is OK and the dogs run free, chase squirrels up trees and are hopefully tired later on.

The Shepaug River, near Washington, Connecticut, is a tributary of the Housatonic River. The Housatonic River runs from western Massachussets through southern Connecticut.
George Black, the author of The Trout Pool Paradox: The American Lives of Three Rivers, writes about the Shepaug: “In springtime, the river is like the Platonic ideal of a trout stream, as it rushes through places called Steep Rock and Hidden Valley.”
