Feline and Nature Friday Flashback to B.A.R. 2016


Nature Friday host LLB Gang  and Feline Friday  host Comedy Plus

Janice, my roving photo journalist, spotted this handsome kitty 
taking a sunbath on her deck.



Nature Friday 

In 2016 there was a most memorable meet and greet of
human and pet bloggers
We had bloggers from several US states:
California, Utah, Illinois, Pennsylvania,
North Carolina
Canada 
and
across the pond from Scotland 


There were two entrances to the park
This beautiful covered Bridge that Beth, Arty and Dory found


And this scenic road through the lush green canopy of trees

We took a group photo of the pups who attended
Left to right
Madi sent her flat self, Arty, Stanley, Murphy, Frankie, (Ernie was on the table in the background),  Hailey, Oreo, Casey, Jessie, Phod and Dory



Those who could not attend sent their flat selves.



According to the locals it was the hottest June on record, even hotter than 
Dixie.  
In the morning we had a wonderful shelter at Brown County State Park



In the afternoon we all met at the campground where several members parked their RVs.
Dory and Arty literally had it made in the Shade.


In spite of the heat, there were beautiful sunsets
