Sometimes Edie just wants to get out of the house.  Ok, ALWAYS Edie just wants to get out of the house.  Requests vary: Park?  Outside?  Backpack Ride?  This last request is a good one because she usually falls asleep on my back.

What a great excuse to take pictures!  Five years ago when Sarah and I moved to Chicago they cordoned off one section of the Lakefront as a nature preserve.  People (and lots of dogs) can walk around, but no landscaping takes place.  This path has grown over time too.  I guess people kept taking the same path.

At the end of the path, sand, rocks, lake, and the pier.  Edie slept the whole time!
