Memorial Day

Columbia State Park is close and is a fun place to go on a holiday. There are stage coach rides, you can make candles, have an old fashioned picture taken...
...or buy some ice cream!  The ice cream parlor happens to be right next door to the Fallon House Theatre box office. Berlynn, Spike and Stella waited for Krista and the ice cream.
And of course the park has street musicians! No, Tracy Chapman was not one of the artists on their request list.
We were doing some research and needed to find St. Anne's Church. Krista checked out the sign with the map.
Before the church, Spike decided to play tourist and went to look at one of the historic houses.
The chickens are not historic and Spike didn't really like them. The rooster was about his size!
Stella just chased shady spots.
Berlynn got the two of them some water to cool off after a long walk.
We did find St. Anne's Church on top of the hill.
So that's why this dog is so tired...
