Where is the perfect place to go on a warm, sunny day in November?
THE BEACH!
Earlier this week, I spent 3 idyllic hours at the beach.
Just me and my dogs.
It was their first time at the beach.
It's too hot in the summer to take them.
Halle and Sami were VERY excited to be there.
As we walked along the shoreline, Halle kept tugging on the leash as she attempted to chase all of the seagulls perched in large groups on the sand.
The State Cross County Championship was being held at the park on the beach that day.
After each group of runners was finished, they came to the warm sand for a cool-down.
Inevitably, each of them ended up running at full speed into the cool water as they hooted and howled in delight! It's hard to believe that only a week ago we were trudging through a foot of snow!
I even persuaded the dogs to walk into the ocean, but they wouldn't go any deeper than their bellies!
After walking for a few hours, it was time to head back onto the warm sand and lay down our blanket.
After watching the kids play a game of football...
Sami and Halle were ready for a little nap!
So we sat down to rest. Ahhhh! So peaceful and relaxing!
Sami rested his head on the warm sand.
As always, Halle chose to rest her head on me!
I will remember this day for a very long time!
Just me and my dogs!
