Just a Day at the Spa

I want a dog's life -- well, at least, this dog's life!

Today, while my daughter, Elise, had a behind-the-scenes tour of the Tang Museum at Skidmore College with her art club from Fulton-Montgomery Community College, Barbara, the guiding eyes puppy, and I went to the spa.

We spent the afternoon at Saratoga Spa State Park, where Barbara ...

strolled along the mineral deposits ...

swam in the creek that runs through the park ...

ran like a crazy lab ...








and sampled water from one of the medicinal springs. (She wasn't impressed with this last activity.)

She came home to have her first bath, as her coat smelled of sulfur from one of the springs. (She thought it would be fun to "roll in the rust."

Now, she is meditating (sleeping). Lucky her!
