We had such a great time at the lake last weekend with Doug's family that we headed back to Jordan Lake this Sunday with our friends Chad and Elise. Chad's dog - Bo Jackson- came along for a dog/fetch afternoon.

Bo is a recent rescue from the same shelter as Willie and he is slowly adjusting to his new life. During this afternoon, Bo learned to swim and play tennis ball fetch. He also proved how smart he is, by waiting for Willie to fetch the ball and then attacking him to steal the ball. Much less effort.

Willie also likes to play "keep away" when we throw the football back and forth. Bo got into this game, too. But instead of chasing the football - he was chasing Willie.

It was a great day - beautiful weather, nice breeze and a great way to spend the afternoon with friends.
