Another chapter in the adventures of Nola. Here is the story of Nola enjoys Cuyahoga Valley National Park. She travels well and is a great companion for our adventures. We spent a day hiking in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park along with other sites in the Cleveland area. It was quite an experience that was made better by Nola’s company.
Bow Wow Dog Park Stowe, Ohio
After our drive to eastern Ohio, I decided to stop at Bow Wow Dog Beach in Stowe, Ohio. The village provides one of the nicest dog parks in the state, and I like to advertise it as much as possible.
This first photo is an overall view of the puppers playing.
If you’re just a few hours away, you should take the trouble to stop here. You can find out particulars such as hours open, etc. on the Stow, Ohio website.
Hyatt Place Independence, Ohio
Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Just outside the visitor center is a statue of a mule. Nola was very concerned about it. I think she had the idea it was real and alive.
She got over her concern and posed for this picture.
Things that pique her interest such as this are fun for both of us.
Nola Enjoys Cuyahoga Valley National Park
As we began our hike, you can see the road on the left, the Erie canal, and on the right is the tow path which we are walking on.
Gleason Farm
You can see the farmhouse in the background with the Erie Canal in the fore front.
Above is a sign that discusses the farm and what they are doing to preserve the scene.
On a side note, the expansion of Cuyahoga Valley National Park has brought a number of bald eagles to the area. You can find out more about that on the park website.
