It is so nice to save photos on goggle. Everything I view my profile in goggle it reminds me of the event I may have forgotten.

Some dogs off lead, even at the lake. Skateboarders around the lake instead of their specially constructed area, dog poo bags along the paths. Spoils a lovely afternoon walk.
