3-18-18  a walk through Carl Cowen park with Tim and Faith and Jesse:

Since it was Sunday, we spent another day with the "kids".   It was a nice sunny day for a change, so we decided to take Jesse for a walk.  With Carl Cowen park right down the street from their house, we headed there. 

 Spring is on it's way in Knoxville!  Even have wildflowers growing

and the bushes have greened up nicely

 people were even out on their boats enjoying the river.

 there were lots of places to sit and enjoy the views awhile.

 Jesse was having a ball

 continuing along the bank

 at one point Tim found these sun glasses.  I think they look pretty darn nice!

 Jesse even ventured into the water a bit

 time for another break

 one of the 2 Grebes I've seen around here this trip.  I've never seen one in Knoxville before.

 another break

 still hazy looking across the river

 after about a mile, we headed back

 They even stopped for their portrait

 We've always seen this dog park near one of our favorite restaurants, so we decided to take Jesse there, too. 

 This dog park even has an area by the river for the dogs to play in

 Jesse wasn't interested in playing in the water, but he seemed pretty happy to be around so many other dogs.

 Back at the house.

 Spring is in the air.

After a trip to the grocery store, Tim cooked up some steaks while Faith made potatoes and veggies.  Another great dinner.

It was another short visit, but we were still gone from our apt. in Georgia for almost 2 weeks.  Monday morning we continued on for another 3 1/2 hours to Buford, Ga.
