"The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven, not man's." - Walt Whitman

We took Angus to the Cape for the day this week. We had to wait until the season came to an end because dogs are not allowed on the beaches during the season. But frankly, it would have been too hot for Angus. Our day was not too hot and not too cool. We started out at Kelly's ole' stomping grounds, West Dennis Beach. If you have never been, it's a must for beach goers. The beach seems to go on for miles with a huge jetty on the west end and a bunch on the east end. We spent some time on the far west side as the tide was out and the water was pretty warm.

Full steam ahead!!

I think he expected me to carry him!!

Drinking salt water!! Uh oh!!

Taking a stroll

 We then headed farther east to Chatham. We stopped at Cockle Cove Beach and had a bit of fun. Cockle Cove is a favorite of mine. Not a large beach but the water stays knee deep for a good hundred yards out which keeps the water pretty warm.

Hi Mama!!

Leaving our mark

We had a great time. Angus seemed to really enjoy himself.... especially the two cheeseburgers from D.Q. after our excursion. Hope to do it again some day.

It's been a few months since posting. What's a better time to post than to wish Angus a Happy Third birthday!! He turned Three on September 19th and had a nice dinner and dessert waiting for him.

Happy Birthday Buddy!!
