Buddy at Buddy Calk Trailhead

On Monday night, we had a family outing with the San Antonio Nature Hounds. Diane and Mike put Molly and me in the back of the Prius and we went to the Buddy Calk Trailhead along the Leon Creek Greenway. There were 12 other dogs and people who walked with us. The trail is mostly a wide sidewalk, so it's good for walking, and reminded me of the walk along the Salado Creek Greenway. However, the trail was heavily used this evening, and there were a lot of bicyclists (probably another Meetup group!) and a lot of runners and other people and dogs using the trail. We had a variety of dogs in the group. At the watering stop, which was next to a golf course and on a ridge, we had a nice breeze, which was pleasant, following the warm (about 86 degrees), humid conditions (about 63% humidity) we encountered on the walk. Mike was impressed that one of the dogs, who is part blue heeler, was so good at fetching. Mike is disappointed that I don't return objects to him when I fetch. We took this group picture. Molly and I are on the far right, and I'm looking toward the trail.

We returned along the trail at a more rapid rate, because it became dark as we walked. We walked behind a couple other dogs and female humans. Molly and I enjoyed our long walk in a different place!
