Hike 41 - Lake of the Isles

Lake of the Isles provides for a beautiful walk. Sure the lake and the trail are nice, but the houses that line this lake are something else. I can’t help but wonder what this area was like 100 years ago. The architecture is amazing along with the size of many of these houses. I can’t remotely afford any of these houses, but it’s fun to dream for a moment.

Besides gawking at people’s houses, we decided to do a dog count on this nice spring day. Jesse guessed there would be about 256 dogs, and Riley played it low with 15 so I suggest we start counting. This is a loop trail so we tried our best not to double count and came up with 100 dogs. I’m all about enjoying the walk for what it is, but sometimes it’s fun to add on little challenges along the way.

The other bonus of this trail is that there are multiple little libraries to explore. Knowing this, we even brought books with us to place in these little libraries.
