You see those rocks that are covered with wire?
Well, those are supposed to be there.
They mark the trail for people who don’t know where it is and can’t smell it.
If people were like us dogs they’d smell their way along the trail and they wouldn’t need trail markers at all.
But apparently, instead of not needing any markers, someone needed extra markers – because they stacked extra rocks on top of the ones that are supposed to be there.
And then to make sure nobody missed them, they shone a light right on them.
I’ve got to figure out how they did that light thing.
So while I was still deep into my investigation…
…I came back the next day and the mystery had deepened.
I mean heightened.
There were more rocks on the stack.
And the light was still there.

I’ve got to figure out that light thing.
Maybe I can get it to shine on me.
I’d love to be in the spotlight.

I think that light was intended for you, Bongo! It came as soon as it saw you and waited there for your comeback. I bet it’ll still be there tomorrow… what a loyal light! 🙂

Marina, I never thought of it that way. Do you think that light will decide to follow me wherever I go?

Bongo Turn around and I think you will see where that light is coming from. Love that hat 🙂

I turned around and now it’s so bright I can’t see a thing.

I guess you need sunglasses to go with that hat.
Bongo

I have some sunglasses somewhere. Now where did I put them?

Thanks Karen. My person says if I come out the same time each day – or maybe a few minutes earlier – I’ll keep seeing that same spotlight. I don’t get it.

Goldendoodles, maybe you can come over to my trails and help me with this investigation. That would be fun.

Lily & Edward, us dogs don’t need that kind of trail marker but some people sure do. Even with the markers my person sometimes has to give other people directions.

That light is a bit fab, and just think if it’s there all the time you will be able to walk in the dark cause the lights will show you the trail.
Bongo
September 16, 2014 at 11:09 am
Dalton, that would be a great idea. Lights to mark the trail. I could even get my person to go for walks with me in the dark then. I’ll have to get right on it.

You are always shining even if the spotlight was not there Bongo! Oh no! more rocks…please be careful not to hit your head with those rocks while you’re investigating Bongo.

Kevin, thanks for the warning. That pile of rocks looks a little precarious.

That light is shining on part of you sweet Bongo, just step up on those rocks a bit and you will be right in that light. Hugs and nose kisses

Chancy and Mumsy, I guess it sometimes takes a little maneuvering to find yourself in the spotlight.
