A Visit to Lake Mohegan

Yesterday was a beautiful day and rain was predicted for today and tomorrow. I needed some kind of exercise and the gym didn't appeal to me so I suggested a hike at Lake Mohegan http://cal.fairfieldct.org/content/2765/2783/3430.aspx.

At the main entrance is a beach with playground, snack bar, sprinkler park and picnic tables. No dogs are allowed there. We headed down a trail around the lake to the doggy beach. We threw Spike's squeaky ball into the lake a few times. Spike is a strong swimmer but slower than many of the other longer legged dogs. Jeff usually carries extra balls so Spike will always have one to retrieve. Yesterday, there were only a few other dogs around so he had no competition.

After Spike's dip, we finished a loop around the lake. Saw a few other hikers with dogs and a few people fishing. It had been about nine months since our last visit and we remembered why we love the place so much.
