Yahoo on Cape Cod!


 Nature's playground! What could be more fun than a romp through the Pamet Harbor salt marsh.  Jam is still in great shape even though her belly seems to be expanding daily.
 Jam on the run -- action shots caught with our new Canon Rebel T3 camera.
 Trixie, below, not to be left out of  good time.

 Catch me if you can!

Jam-in at Balston Beach



 A picture perfect day for a hike through the hills of Truro to Balston Beach, which is on the Atlantic Ocean.
 We couldn't imagine that the beach would be empty on such a gorgeous August day,
 The surf was a bit rough due to Hurrican Irene and there was a high surf warning.  The little black dot out in the water is a seal.  We saw a number of seals swimming offshore amid the seagulls floating on the surface.
 Jam loved spending time with us and running along the beach,
 Here I come!
 And what could be better than shorebirds to point...we think these are terns.
 August is considered the best month for observing shorebirds on Cape Cod.
 Jam had a wonderful workout and was quite tired when she joined us for dinner at an outdoor cafe in Provincetown.

Summer fun continues

Savi is our resident retriever, loves to retrieve whether on land or in the water.  We let her play with the Armadillo brand Quail toy that Jam won as a trophy for qualifying at the Tarheel Weimaraner Club Agility trial back in July.. Whar is amazing is that this salt marsh is right outside our house and at high tide becomes a  fabulous place for the dogs to swim.  At other times, the perfect place for a romp.

 Life is good when you have a view like this!
 Savi waiting for the throw...she's always ready for fun and games!
 Jam, practicing her whoa and sister, Savi, did an automatic back, very cool.
There must be critters in these holes...

Summer fun on the Cape!


 On the road again...this time for our annual summer holiday on Cape Cod.  We call it our little slice of heaven and you can see why from these photos.
 The dogs love running in the salt marsh and we have amazing views from our rental house.
 Running along the beach at Pamet Harbor and viewing the boats.
 Trixie and Savi cooling off.  We've had spectacular weather - perfect beach day and cool evenings.
 Savi doing what she loves best, swimming and retrieving...until she find birds!
 Savi found the big prize...a dead seagull! Yuck but she retrieved it and dropped it on command.  Good girl!
Fisher Beach, just beautiful!

and a fabulous way to celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary!
