Coco... the pretty toy poodle, princess of George & Qiqi. She was gentle and very smart, knowing dozens of tricks, and she would do all the tricks for you for a special treat...baby carrots! Unbelievable, eh? Maybe she is a natural-born vegetarian dog?

2:16PM - We walked 1 hour up...1 hour back.. on this natural trail which is 7.9 miles long and covers 809 acres. The temperature was hot, the riverbed was bone dry. We walked very fast, with few words exchanging. Came cross few people.. a couple of them with dogs, without leash (even the board at entrance announced that dogs have to be leashed). I wished our Shag was there with us... without leash of course.. what a treat to him it would be!
P.S... the outhouse at its entrance was the worst one I have ever adventured, it should be the challenge on the Fear Factor.

6:35PM - the moment I had been waiting for... the view of the San Antonio's Riverwalk over Casa Rio's colorful umbrellas. Applied a mixed media style photo painting design to the original picture (below).
