A walk on the Heathland

Sep 21, 2010 23:19


I'm doing all right, not sick anymore, car is fixed and I'm okay driving again. I'm glad. :)
Anyhow, someone at school (CCL) asked if I could make some more pictures of Silas because I haven't in a long while and he wanted to see how big he's gotten. Well, I took the camera today when out on a piece of heathland here, like, a fifteen minute drive from our house (in the middle of Eindhoven). I love where we live so much, even though the city itself isn't great, the surrounding nature is so diverse. The 'few photo's'  kind of turned into a huge shoot though. xD Because I really can't pick. They're all so cute, and it's also nice to kind of..take you guys along on the walk.

So, big pic-spammage, as I almost haven't taken out any photos. And with big pic-spammage, I mean MAJOR spammage. Most pics are taken by my sister, as taking shots of Silas myself is particularly difficult. He is either somewhere following behind me, or not paying any attention - which results in calling him, getting his attention, and then getting a dog that is running way too franticly towards me. Blurriness galore! Also, I can't decently interact with him that way either!
But, enough chatter, picture time!

The place starts with a little wood, and in the back you can see the beginning of the small patch of sand dunes/heathland. Silas is waiting for us to catch up. Fast bugger.



And here Silas had to catch up. xD



Merel takes the camera, and we walk along.





Silas acting like a total teenager; I go "come here", he looks at me a while..and then goes back doing his own business. xD Sadly for him I'm waaay more stubborn.



Hiding in the heater!



Silas in motion!



Weird paw.. xD



I: *squats to give the moss a closer look* Silas: *sit* *bark*  (I think I was starting to look at the moss because I was stubbornly waiting for him to come to me and sit down. And he can be such a baby sometimes when he has to come and doesn't want to. So sometimes he mopes a bit when sitting down. xD so cute. xD)



ACTION!!! (I threw the weird stick-thing he walks around with the whole walk)



I found a nice climbable tree, yay! Can't pass up that opportunity!



Me teasing Silas, telling him to come climb the tree as well. xD He so wish he could, poor thing. xD



Sitting.



And going on.



Silas the prancing pony!! (one of his many, many nicknames is: parade paardje, which obviously means prancing pony.)



Me taking a tiny path right through the heather(I looove those small trails, or even better, not yet created paths), my mum and sister taking the other. Silas obviously follows.





Ecstatic puppy.



Distracted by something interesting puppy.



Went off the path and sat down amidst the heather, and after a call Silas pranced towards me as well, jumping over all the bushes on his way.





He looks so proud. xD






Edit (forgot this picture!!);
The sun burns our eyeballs! xD .. Silas and I both found the sun rather intense (which I was at this time saying to my sister, who had the sun in her back..and therefore straight in my eyes xP).



And walking on.



Or well, more like skipping along.



Oooh another tree, another game!





Chase the puppy!





And the route back.



Fin!

Hope everyone enjoyed the walk! x3 BIG HUGS for you awesome lj-friends whom I looove. <3

me, life, ramblings, silas
