Lighthouse to Lucy the Wonder Dog

What do we do when "Cabin Fever" sets in? We go out in the RV.

Sharyn had gotten word the Whales were moving up the coast. So we went to the overlook near the Umpqua River lighthouse. No Whales so...


... we drove back east to Elkton RV park and found out they had ...


...made some nice additions to the fire pit...


... and we were given the site directly next to this great area to sit and watch the river.


There wasn't much going on this time of year. The water was up and it was too cool for swimming. I did get this shot on the river bank.


There were some fully grown green leaves...


... And some just sprouting.


To give you some perspective the bump in the middle of the river and the moss on the rocks...


... looked like this in the summer.


I still love the look of the barn across the river but there was another treat awaiting.


That treat was Bob and his "Wonder Dog" Lucy.


Lucy is a Frisbee dog and a very good one...


...whether the disc is thrown high...


... Lucy follows the flight.


So Bob let it fly ...

... off went Lucy...


... and nearing her target...


... Lucy jumped and gathered in the green Frisbee. In several throws Lucy never missed. Not only that but Lucy brought the disc back about three feet from Bob then with a shake of her head threw it the remaining three feet to Bob, amazing.

Great job Bob from Bend and his wonderful Lucy.
