Dog Beach

August 12, 2000

After watching "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" morning and night since Tuesday, Mommy and Daddy decided it was time for a change. So we got up early this morning and took Banshee and Astro to Dog Beach. I was frightened of the water at first, but that's ok because so was Astro. I started to have fun after a little while. Daddy & I were throwing the ball for Banshee and I forgot to be afraid. I didn't ever go all the way in the water, but Banshee sure did, about 100 times!!

Banshee loves the water and ran right in!	From the wet sand into the water is a leash-free zone, but we left hers on in case we needed to grab her real quick (it's been awhile since the dogs have been out in public.)	"I got the ball, Dad, here I come!"
I wasn't about to turn my back on the water. I was sure it would sneak up on me and knock me down.	Banshee is waiting patiently for Daddy to throw the ball again.	"Mommy, I don't wanna go in the water!"
"Throw the ball already!!"	Me & Astro hangin' out... out of reach of the water.	Astro, Banshee & Daddy
I'm starting to have fun now. The wet sand was squishing under my toes, it made me feel like dancing.	I'm still not real sure about this.	I finally got to throw the ball for Banshee.
On your mark, get set, ... Time to calm down now.
