Jack's first feild trip

Mum has been trying to get Dad to go places on Sunday afternoons. Well, yesterday, it was a success: We went to The Muskegon Lake Nature Preserve. It was really fun but my feet started to hurt about half-way through the walk. Jack was well behaved, he was awesome, although he did bark at a group that had a little boy in it, the kid said, "Stay back dog!"
Jack saw many critters, mostly birds, but he saw a squirrel, too.
Jack did good on the ride to and from the park. Oh yeah, Jack did try to jump into the swamp, but dad caught him just in time (of course Jack had a leash on, it was in the rules).
It was really fun. I hope to go to the beach next week!

Here is a picture of Jack when he was a puppy. Isn't he SO cute? this was taken in 2003, so he is around 1 year old.


Just a little bit ago, Jack and I were playing ball and hide and seek at the same time (one of Jacks favorite games). I threw the ball into the living room and ran into Mom and Dad's bedroom, I hid under Mom's favorite blanket (part of it was hanging down off the edge of the bed; it looked like I wasn't there. (I'm still a bit skinny.)
It took something like 5-10 minutes for Jack to find me. Jack looked up stairs (my room), the kitchen, everywhere. When he did find me, he sniffed the top of my head (still under the blanket) and Barked. It made me jump then I started Laughing. I find that so funny.

Please tell me what kind of stuff your dog (or JRT) does. Is it funny? Is it smart? I would like to know.
