![]() curacao-island-dog Hello, howdy and how do you do?? Never used that one before! Today I did something new, I rode my bike to Canoa from my house (that’s around 12 miles) then past the windmills, on the Saint Joris and back home. It took me two hours, I think it was close to 25 miles but it was a perfect morning for riding, overcast and no traffic. I have wanted to try this loop for so many years and finally just did it and other than the head wind it was fun! After cleaning the bike and myself I ran to the store, I found out it was open till noon and stocked up on a few more little things. At 12:00 sharp I loaded the dogs and off we went to Saint Joris for a three hour hike! The weather was still overcast and kind of cool so I said what the heck let’s go! I again carried my tripod and macro lens looking for small little things I thought you might enjoy for your daily picture. While standing in a few inches of water I shot a hermit crab in a fossil sea shell laying on some sedum along the edge of the cliff. I had to wait awhile for the hermit crab to come out of his shell, Inca stood next to me and Indi just ran around like a crazy dog! Well after a little time had passed I thought to myself, where is Indi, I haven’t seen or heard from her in the last five minutes or so and got a bit worried that she was off eating something smelly and dead! I was still facing the cliff with my camera on the tripod, she wasn’t in front of me, she wasn’t to the left and she wasn’t to the right, now I was worried! I called and called and finally looked at Inca who was staring at something behind me in the ocean? I quickly turned around to see Indi “the mountain goat” had somehow swam out and climbed up on this little rock island and claimed it as her own! I had to laugh it was too funny, I said what are you doing over there and after snapping a picture called her back to shore, this is why we named her Indi short for independent! The rest of our hike was super fun, I found lots of cool beach treasures and the dogs chewed on just about every flip-flop and buoy they found, another great trip to the bay!
We just had a wonderful dinner and I am ready for bed, my legs feel like Jell-O! Hope all is well, drop us a line we would love to hear from you! See you tomorrow, Barry
