Getting into the Beach

Some pup is really getting into the beach.

And we don't just mean a little digging in the sand.

We mean head buried, sand in your nostrils & caked in your fur "into" the beach.

The Way We Really Walk

The hu-dad insists on posting all of these pictures that show us walking calmly. We wanted to show you how our walks really happen. Ready?

Hey, Cheesewhiz, back off the Rooster Neck.

It is the Q-Tip flying tackle!

Get off my back, white fluffy boy.

I will use the patented Rusty the Vampire move on you.

Hey dad, Rusty is playing unfair!

Come on, make him play fair.

Ha-ha, Q-Tip, I got you again!

Camping Neighbors

We really like Huntington Beach State Park for a number of reasons, but one of those is the wide, spacious campsites. As you can imagine, when you are traveling with a number of dogs, it is great to have a little room between RV’s so everyone can enjoy their vacation. Still, you will always notice what your neighbors are doing.

One of our many neighbors in the campground.

Though we really do not think that Natasha is bird watching this intently.

This feral cat seems to be the object of her attention.

Not sure who, but someone had set out some food for one of the feral cats who lives in the area. The Herd was very distracted by these particular neighbors.

First Morning

With sunset just after 5 pm, we arrived at the beach a little late to be able to take any pictures. But at sunrise Sunday morning, our temperature is expected to be 34 F (1 C), perfect Siberian weather for a stroll on the beach. So let’s take you back to our beach vacation two years ago and one of our all time favorite beach pictures – and what we plan to do on our first morning.

There is something about unplugging to take a vacation. Since we got a good bit of reaction to our song choice yesterday, we thought we would include another video for today. Our song is from the Zac Brown Band along with Jimmy Buffett – Knee Deep.

Cheesewhiz RV face!

By the time you read this post, the RV will be loaded with supplies – and The Herd – and we will be on the road to Huntington Beach State Park for our annual Christmas week at the beach. We will take you along throughout the week with our adventures and lots and lots of pictures.

When you think of beach songs, you may not think of country music but we, well, always think of country music. And this song captures the spirit of WHY everyone wants to get away for a bit better than any I know – Blake Shelton and Some Beach.

What is your favorite beach song? Feel free to leave us a link in the comments so we have lots of music to listen to during our vacation.

The Herd sightseeing by walking down the Battery in Charleston, SC.

P.S. – Yes, the hu-dad was wearing his goofy hat as you can see in the shadows, but he was NOT wearing his camouflage socks with sandals.

Wave’s Revenge

Saturday's storms passed and we were greeted with the rising sun Sunday morning.

So we were off for a little early morning stroll in the surf.

Kiska - It's the ocean. No one will notice a little pee break, will they?

Whoa. That wave was a little higher than expected.

No one is going to say a word about this, will you?

We travel for 6 hours in the RV, and the beach is all stormy like this.

Not that a little rain slowed us down at all from walking the beach.

Hu-dad says busyness has been totally crazy for months, so he is calling a time-out. He says we need to go do something different. Wonder what he has in mind? Here are your hints for where we are headed this week.

Here is your first hint - Cheesewhiz RV Face!

We certainly plan to hang out a lot like this.

We will probably do some of this.

We certainly plan to breathe deeply.

Oh yeah - and lots and lots of this.

Ok, those may be more than hints, but we are so looking forward to posting remotely. (By the way, hu-dad also says he plans to catch up on blog reading because he is way, way, way, way behind. Sorry for being so AWOL on commenting).
