Pretty Good for a 91 year old

I can't believe that I'd never taken Jack to the beach since he's come to live with me and the dogs.
And today I figured out why - I don't think he's ever been to a beach as far as I can tell - he didn't seem to be too thrilled about it -Once he figured out he had to walk over some rocks he did what he always does when he comes upon an obstacle he thinks he can't get over - he started running back in the direction we came from! So I went and fetched him, and I carried him down to the beach - he was not too impressed with me - I can tell you!But after a couple minutes down on the beach I think he figured out I hadn't dragged him down to hell on earth and the other dogs seemed to be having fun, so he started to perk up.
and of course - there was liver involved with the outing - so it couldn't have been all bad.
Buttercup of course loved it. This next series of photos is of Buttercup running around having a hell of a time - it was so beautiful to see that she still is full of bananas - she was running around and wagging her bum trying to get Jack to play - and they were running side by side - it was really cute. I think they had a really good time.


The big dogs had a good time too - they of course knew what to do immediately - wrestle, run, and go in the water - repeat...
