My Trips to Cape Cod - Part 2

Where we left off was on the beach.... 
I enjoyed just laying on the beach
 In the nice warm sun

 The smells of the ocean breeze.
But I hated the stoopid sand getting in my drools!!  I kept getting sand in my mouth and crunching on it.  Yuck.

Thankfully there was a water fountain right there.

This one was made just for me, perfect height.

After the beach we went up to Provincetown to see the award winning Dog Park

 There was a lot of cool art.
 This piece made us miss Tyson.....

 There were a few pups I got to meet

 And lots of cute art to explore.
 I saw this sign so we made sure to stop at the Cape Cod Dog store on the way back that day. I gots treats.
The art was very interesting

 What a fun little dog park.

Next we had lunch and stopped to the dog store, which was very nice.  

Then we made sure to go to another beach!

 This one had sand ripples from the tide.
 There were little tidal pools to explore.  I jumped with the minnows swam by my feet!



 We made our way back to the motel and spent the afternoon/evening exploring the town and taking a long walk on the beach next to the motel.  The next morning we started the long ride home.  I was happy to see Tyson when we picked him up.  However, all of us were pooped by the time we got home.

Thanks Cape Cod for being dog friendly so I could have a nice Vacation!

My Trips to Cape Cod - Part 1

Oh I is so very excited to share my vacation to Cape Cod wiff you.  In the morning we left and dropped Tyson off at the day spa (aka kennel) for his socialization vacation (which he did very well wiff).  I loves traveling but this trip would have been too much drive time for the little pup.

 When we hit Massachusetts we stopped at Sonic for lunch, yummers!
I gots to smell the city of Boston on the way.

And backseat drive for Momma in the tunnels. "It's safe to merge right, hooman"

It took us most the day to gets to the Cape so I was tired but very excited to get to our motel.

We went right to the beach! It was beautiful weather at 72 degrees in October, you couldn't beat that.

The beach had tons of these dead things, Horsehoe crabs the hoomans called them.  They were just plain creepy.

We gots some Pizza for dinner and watched the sunset, afterwards I snuggled in a the motel and went right to sleep.

The next morning (another gorgeous day) we headed out to the National Seashore.  
However, one slight problem...

The Tucker doesn't really like stairs, the Tucker hates wooden stairs, and wooden stairs with no back are just plain scary.  

Meet the stairs..... 


 But, I didn't come all that way to just look at the beach, I was going on it.  I was so excited I practically ran down them to get to the beach.

I met some friends on the beach, they were very nice but we couldn't play cause we had to stay on leash.

But the beach, 

it was Beautiful

 I noticed something in the distance...
I had to investigate.....

 OMG - Seals!  I had never seen seals before.  I never barked at them once I just watched them and they watched me.

We left our hands and footprints on this beach and headed out to the next beach.

 Beach two was just a lovely.
 And had way more seals!
 I had so much fun watching these guys, they were pretty close.
 Part 2 of my trip coming soon!

Last Weekend's Adventure

 Last weekend I went with the hoomans to visit my Aunt D in Connecticut.  It tooks foverevers to get there.
Then the next day I went for a great walkie were I met a new friend named Lulu.
Unfortunately I met some other creatures I had never seen before.  It was a really warm day and all the baby ticks hatched!  The hoomans and I had gone of the trail and then we noticed a tick.  We got right back on the trail but I had to stand there for about 20 minutes as the hooman looked me all over and looked themselves all over for ticks.  There was about thirty ticks on all of us (they hadn't bit us, they were just on our clothes).  We gots them all off and I got a new dose of frontline plus to be sure they didn't bite me in case they missed one. Those peoples in Connecticut have to deal with really bad ticks, Lyme disease is named after Old Lyme Connecticut were the first case was discovered.  We have them in Maine too but once the frost comes the ticks go bye bye until spring.  I have frontline plus every month and from April - October and then Momma skips a month over the winter.  We hardly ever see ticks, let alone this late in the year.  I has never had one ever and then a whole tick party exploded on us.  We finished our walk, checked ourselves over again and again and then got back in the car.
The tick party was stressy so we needed some pasta.  This stuff is soooo good!
The hoomans gots me a meatball... Yum!
When it was time to make the trip back to Maine I was sad to leave Aunt D but I was so tired.  We stopped to Colonial Candies in Massachusetts on the way home.
Momma got a very bad for you ice cream (she skipped lunch so she said that made it ok)
I gots plain jane vanilla but it was good!  I wonder if Norwood and Mango go here?
I slept the whole ride home, I only woke up to barks at the toll booth attendants.
Boy was I tired when we gots home.  It took me three days to get caught up on my beauty rest.
