Savage Mill "Paws-n-Pastries" - April 13

This was such a great little walk. We did this on Sunday (April 13) as one of the Meetup walks. The weather was a little chilly, but thankfully no rain and certainly no "ice pellets", which was in the forecast for Sunday.

We had about 19 people and about as many dogs--some people had 2-3 dogs, and some dogs had 2-3 people. It's always great to see the mix of little guys and big ones and how well they get along and trot along the trail.

The Savage Historic Mill Trail is very short (about 1.5 miles round trip), but what it may lack in length, it makes up in ease and beauty. You can even take a short side trail down to the river and any dog so-inclined can jump in. And some did. Then you can wind up the walk with a visit to Savage Mill and Bonaparte's bakery. There is a nice enclosed courtyard to relax with a dog and enjoy coffee, lunch and all manner of sweet treats.

We'll definitely do this one again!
