Springtime on Austin’s Greenbelt–A dillo’s-eye view

2010 March 29

Man, this weekend was so relaxing. The sun was shining. Everything is blooming. And this little dillo didn’t do anything but catch up on my stories, sleep and hike the Greenbelt with a couple of mangy mutts.

During last year’s drought, the Greenbelt was bone dry. Since kickin it on the Greenbelt is one of my favorite things to do during Austin’s summer, it was really depressing. This year, however, we’ve got water. And after enduring this rainy season, I was damn near busting out of my shell to get out on the water. Check out the photos, below, of my first excursion of the season on the Greenbelt.

Photos out with the dogs on the Greenbelt:

This is Hank. For a dog, he's ok.

Baby is nice enough. She's stumpy, so she was easier to keep up with than Hank.

I told Hank not to drink the stagnant water. Dogs are dumb. Hope he didn't get sick.

We decided to climb up a little higher off the trail.

Baby isn't good at climbing, but she tried.

Hank was acting a damn fool on the ledge.

They've still got energy.

This bitch wouldn't even talk to me.

Well hello there ;)

Stop winking at me!

Water!

This looks like a nice place for a swim.

Hank cools off in the water. WATER!

I splash around for a bit. Feels good!

Then they decided it would be fun to chase me around.

HANK! Stop chasing me, this isn't funny!

The end of a beautiful day!
