Looking for a Treat

He's hard to spot in this one. I threw a treat into a creek that flows into the Brandywine river while we were hikng in the Cheslen Preserve. It floated downstream before he was able to see it. He would probably still be looking for it if I hadn't called him off and given him another one. Remember you can click on the picture to make it bigger. John

Yawning Crocus

I guess it was a little too early in the morning for Benny.  This should be an easy mystery location for alot of you.
The answer to the last post is: Trap Pond State Park.

Watching Ducks










This picture was taken at Eva's restaurant, a dog friendly place in St Micheal's,Md..  Dogs are allowed on the back patio.  Good food, gracious staff.   The second was taken at the southern most of  Delaware's State Parks.  Known for it's Cypress trees.  The answers to the previous post are: under the bell and the name of the second Skipjack(boat).

Road trip

Benny and I visited the Chesapeake bay region for a couple of days this week.  I drove.

The first picture is from the Maritime Museum in St Micheals, Maryland.  Benny shouldn't be too hard to find.  In the second picture try to find the name of one of my children.  You might have to enlarge it by clicking on it. Answer to the previous post: the dog trial was held in Phoenixville,Pa. this past October.

Last Trial

After much discussion Benny and I have decided that sometimes I won't make him hide for the picture.  So  you won't always have to find him, you'll just have to try and guess the location.
With that said, the current picture was taken at the last agility trial he and Anne attended(I've also made it his profile picture.)  He was awarded his Agility Dog Champion (ADCH) at this trial(see ribbon in picture.)  She was very touched by the surprise presentation in the center of the ring surrounded by her agility friends.  Unfortunately I don't have a picture of that, but I have it endearingly etched in my mind.
Answer to previous post: Benny is next to the first apple tree.

First day

Hey everyone,
I'm starting a blog based on the "Where's Waldo" concept with Anne's dog, Benny, replacing Waldo.
As many of you know Anne loved to hike with her dogs. I plan to revisit her favorite spots with Benny. See if you can find him. The answer will be in the next blog.
And please don't forget to give to the cancer charity of your choice,or do a charity walk, run, bike ride, etc. with a friend or loved one.
So here's the latest picture of Benny (so you'll know what your looking for.)  The second picture was taken at the ChesLen preserve today.  Benny is in the picture.  Good luck.
