A Long Walk...

Last week Mom took me and my sister, Moxie, to Lake Padden. We went there intending to play with our friends in the fenced area of the park, but nobody came while we were there. We waited and waited, and still no friends to play with. So, Mom decided to take us on a walk around the lake. None of us had been on that walk/hike before and we had no idea how long it was. Mommy had me walk for a few minutes, but I got really tired so she carried me. When we got to a place on the trail that was sunny, Mommy made me walk again. I walked a long way, probably 1/2 a mile, which felt like 5 miles on my little legs. The whole hike was actually 2.6 miles. It took us over 2 hours to walk the whole trail. Mommy told Daddy later that it took us so long because we were walking "Ferdi miles per hour." I think she was teasing me a little bit. :)
