A doggy death march...

Martin and I decided that because we had no plans for Sunday afternoon, we wanted to try to go someplace new to hike around with Loki. We decided on a section of the Genesee Riverway Trail, beginning our hike north of the city, and heading into the High Falls section. It was a great walk, and it was nice to do some exploring in Rochester for a change. The trail wasn't always clearly marked, and for sections of it, you are basically just walking the sidewalks of the city. But it took us to some cool little parts and we got to check out the dams and old power stations (and the ones still functioning).
Loki was a trooper. Before we even got to the High Falls, he was pooping out on us. We ended up walking right by the falls, because there was no clear indication (you know, like a sign) to let us know we were there, but we did find them! Its really pretty neat, because the waterfalls are just tucked away in the middle of the city. You sort of stumble upon them.
Loki didn't care much for the falls, and basically couldn't get into the car by the time we got back because he was so tired. He slept the entire way home....
