I know how to get there.

Paper mill below the dam. Picture from the web. It just looks cool.

I am actually looking at this now to figure out where it is.  I'd love to explore it as well!

Let's do it then! I can lead us fearfully through the bottom tunnel and you can lead me screaming through the upper one!

lol and why we love you and you are our old3dogg  
 
Seriously though, if anyone wants to go, I am kid free this weekend and would love to come up!! Bring knee high s&*tkickers though....you may need them with the extra melting.  The water in the upper tunnel may be deeper than normal (just a guess)

I may be clung onto you!

I may be clung onto you!

I tried EVP in the upper tunnel before as well as video recording.  Did not pick anything up but also did not have alot of time, nor did we go during peak activity hours. Anyone up for an after 9 trip to try all of this out lol?

Wish I could have gone, Dodge!  It's always such a fun time

I am just waiting for it to fall face first into something. I can't say it's the most adorable dog I have seen. but I have  a soft heart when it comes to pets. I'd adopt a pup like that....and gift it to Bon....in a heartbeat lol

So sad, but a wonderful ending. 

Back then you had snow tires, a shovel, a couple hundred pounds of weight in the trunk, and chains in case you needed them.  Now everyone believes that "all-season" tires will get you anywhere you want to go.

Watch out for those black cats though, some say they are evil ;-)

kitten worms= great for catching catfish

From the News-Gazette:
 
The Missouri-Pacific Railroad northeast of Penfield drifted closed by a blizzard, on Jan. 28, 1978.

Bon, I am betting this is near where I lived....that's a straight shot like that with fields. The tracks that are still active are behind the creek.  But there is an old railroad grade right along 255 that people 4-wheeler on now. not sure which track this was, but I am betting this is right before Mill Run. 

Lay in a sunny window.

Conspire against the humans... They're too cold to notice.

BoBo isn't too keen on his new coat but I told him its for your own good boy..

Oh yeah? So hows come when I say "here kitty, kitty" he comes running?

Dog blanket.
 
At least my lap is warm.

Holy snow! Glad I wasnt even a thought yet ;-) lol
