No, actually it was nice and cloudy and cool yesterday which felt a lot better after all this hot weather we had.

Gizmo found a spot to roll over in.

We also hung out at the docks.

Walking exercises make you thirsty.

Headshots.

The rest of the pics:

"I had a great time today. I'm looking forward to Chisolm Trail Park weather permitting later today".

I just happened upon it in my recommendations. Makes you wonder what they think I think about. LOL! I’ve never seen anything like them, and I hope you do get to take a day trip to search them out when we aren’t a 3rd-world country anymore.

Well good. You’d mentioned it might rain y’all out of your fun. Those cooler temps were a nice bonus. Gizmo looked quite pleased.

It was cool here, too, with the high of only 68. Back to the 80s the next couple of days though.

I rarely bother to look at their recommendations. Good that you did and found that one ........ for whatever reason they chose it for you. LOL
They’re intriguing, no doubt.

There’s another one I found on Google Maps that’s a little closer and not far from where my brother lives. That would be a better one to check out because we could stop by to visit my brother on the way home.

That would be great! I hope you can read the inscriptions on the headstones. Be sure to take your camera if and when you go. LOL!

I guess I’d better go. I’m really tired now even though, since I could cover up last night in the cooler weather, I slept better than I had been. See ya tomorrow. Quiz night. Yay!

It’s going to be a while before we even consider taking the trip. Our cars can’t use ethanol gas so we pay a pretty penny for real gas these days. My wallet feels the extra 100 miles a week I drive now that the museum is open again.
Maybe one day though. I really want to see them.

I hope it’s cool enough for you to get another good night’s sleep. Catch ya for the quiz.

Still, that is lot more fun than paperwork and staff meetings. :)

Well, one thing about it. Those ancient graves aren’t going anywhere. Wish I could go with you when you do go. All I can think about is the chiggers as you tramp through the weeds and grass though! **scratch/itch** LOL!

Howdy, EGC! ((hugs)) Glad it was cooler so you could enjoy a long romp with Gizmo!
He does look like he's getting refreshed for the next leg of the adventure!

No, they aren’t going anywhere. LOL
I do hope to get a chance to see them one day.

Nothing to worry about regarding chiggers. You get those going into the woods to pick blackberries. They seem to love blackberries. I do, too, but won’t pick them anymore even though we have them in our woods.
