Fall Walks :: Montrose Harbor

On Halloween weekend we went for a little walk up by Montrose Harbor...

seeing as that we live so far north that we are almost to Wisconsin this is were we ended up instead of our old stomping grounds by South & North Pond.  Walking around Montrose Harbor is nice but we were pretty bored after a few minutes.  The idea of driving down to North Pond was mentioned.  But then we found ourselves in front of a welcoming sign...

Lately the increasing number of signs like this in parks is just annoying.  The 'no dogs' signs all over the park near us is not adding any points to the 'do we still love Chicago' debate.  So...

 

So the boring walk was saved.  The dogs come alive when they have sand under their paws and dune grass to search through.  We headed home some what satisfied with this little bit of being in the great outdoors.
