Sunday Hiking at Waterfall Glen

We went for a hike this Sunday at the Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve in one of the southwestern Chicago suburbs.  It was about a 35 minute drive from the city (with no traffic) and Maddie was great the entire car ride there. We brought the hiking backpack and strapped her in. She seemed to love it - no complaints! We took her out to explore the waterfall and she loved picking up rocks and throwing them into the water. We put her back in the backpack to hike some more and hiked along the creek. We circled back and went to an Overlook area, and then back to the car. Maddie was great the entire time!  We got lunch at a Mediterranean restaurant on the way home. 

We set Maddie down for a nap as soon as we got home and I had to wake her up so she didn't sleep too late. She did not want to get up! I opened her door and was even able to take a few pictures with the flash on and she still did not wake up! She only woke up when I coughed a little bit.
