Copperhead Island

     This past weekend, we decided to brave the cold SC weather (40 is pretty cold down here :) and spend sometime outside in the fresh air.  We bundled up, packed up the dogs and headed over to McDowell's Nature Preserve which is just a few miles from our house. 

When we got there, we realized that many of the hiking trails didn't appear to be stroller friendly so we got some insider info from a nice man that a spot just down the road was a great place with paved trails.  So, we jumped back in the truck and headed over to Copperhead island.  It was a gorgeous spot right on Lake Wylie and was super quiet.  We had a great walk around the island...and I got quite a work out pushing around my little 30- pounder in the stroller on the hilly trail.  The dogs were beyond happy and we were all glad to be outside on such a beautiful day. 

 

 

    When we loaded back up into the truck, the dogs were in the backseat with Chase.  They were both panting and Chase started imitating them and panting as well.  It was so funny...and I was lucky enough to catch it on camera.
