Man on Wall, Deer in Road

Shenandoah National Park


Don’t worry; the drop off is not as steep as it looks. You can step down and walk around in the grass. 


The speed limit in the park is 35 miles an hour or less. Not only are there many curves, but often there is wildlife that walks out into the road. 


Sometimes Charlie is my riding buddy. I’m afraid we may have to take a break from that for a while because he has gotten very adept at getting out of his harness, which is fastened to a doggy seatbelt to keep him safe.

  1. Clever Charlie, where there’s a will, there’s a way. Not good for safety though. Great photos of Skyline Drive and I loved the ones of the deer. We are hoping to go up there this week coming up.

  3. I think the only way to confine Charlie's movements is to glue him to the seat!

  4. ...walls were built for a reason, stay off.

  5. Oh dear Charlie! What a clever little guy! Love that you captured the deer, who seemed just as interested in you!

  6. We have to be careful here for deer and bear crossing the roads. Charlie sure is a cute little fellow!

  7. Hello Linda :=)
    Lovely view, and the deer are lovely too. Charlie is so handsome, but doesn't want to be confined. He probably would prefer to be in the front seat with you.
    Enjoy your Sunday
    All the best.

    The deer are a lovely sight.

  9. It must be frustrating that Charlie is so independent and wiggly! I remember those walls that were set back from the actual drop-off, presumably to protect people (who should know better than Charlie what’s good for them).
