Happy Easter

Happy Easter from the pugs! The pugs are sporting their Easter bandanas given to them by Aunt Gaila. If you look closely in the photo you will also see the Solsey flag given to us by Sue VDB.

Shake, Shake, Shake

Since the pugs get a wet and sandy mess at the beach, they do a lot of shaking while they are running around playing. I caught of few shots of Benjamin shaking off some water and sand. I love to see how the wrinkles on the back of Benny's neck fly while he is shaking. He really gets into it.

Waves

Since the water was warm, Henry was having fun running in and out of the ocean. He would run into the water about chest deep, splash around a bit and hop back to shore at full steam.

Since it was a nice day out there were lots of boats passing. Of course the boats left a wake. Henry being Henry plows right through the waves washing ashore. I was lucky enough to manage to get a picture of Henry jumping through one of the tiny waves. Tiny to us, but pretty big to a pug I would imagine.

Line in the Sand

While at the beach, this is pretty much where you can always find Luna. Just a few inches short of where the waves wash on shore.

Occasionally a wave will catch her or she will take a quick run into the water to cool off a bit, but for the most part she avoids the water. She reminds of a sanderling. Those little birds that always run along the shoreline poking at the water for little bits to eat. They go in and out with the waves at full speed and they always manage to avoid getting wet. That is pretty much how Luna plays at the beach.

Beachy

Good news! Our beach problem was solved! Despite, Saturday being a pretty hot day, things cooled off in the evening and we made a mad dash to the beach.

It was quite breezy out, but that only helped cool the pugs even more. Plus, the water temp must have been around 69° or 70° so the pugs had fun splashing around in the ocean. Heck, even I went in up to my knees.

I took a ton of pictures, so I think this week's theme is going to be scenes from the beach. For those still battling cold weather or heaven forbid snow, if you can't escape to a warm sandy destination we'll bring the warm weather and beach to you.

Beach Day

As odd as this may sound, considering that is only April, I'm hoping that we are able to squeeze in one more beach day with the pugs this spring. We tried to take the pugs to the beach last weekend, but it was just too hot. I'm sure we can sneak in an evening trip to the beach, but I would like to be able to get in one more day of fun where we don't have to worry about the puggers overheating. We'll have to wait and see if mother nature cooperates.

I tell ya, if you have to have problems, these are the types of problems to have.
