Sadie Update

Little Sadie is turning into a little dog. Almost as big as Coop and twice as mean, she'll be running the house before too long.

Beach Day

To escape the heat, we hit the beach this weekend. It was Sadie's first trip to the beach, and she had a good time.

We have a couple of "secret" beaches we go to, and they were relatively free from people. We also hit Pacific City and it was the busiest I have ever seen it.

I tried a little fishing, with no success. Lots of fog, wind and rough seas. Reminded me of a March day on the coast.

Nothing better than a cold beer and a warm dog...

Stay away from my hole

As many of you know, Cooper likes to dig holes on the beach. It is an obsession, actually.

What we didn't know is how much he likes to protect said hole. But, being the stubborn do she is, Sadie wants anything that Coop has, even if it is just a hole.

After about 5 minutes of warning, Sadie decides to march in and take the hole.

Lots of fighting ensues.

And guess what... Coop is all bark and no bite...

Went for a hike

Dogs had to get out. Wife needed to get out. I needed exercise...

Rosie RIP

Well, our old friend Rosie left us a few months back, but I found these digging through another camera. Trip to the Deschutes with Joe and Rosie last fall...
