Well, we took a very good trip today, no problems
just lots and lots of fun, fun, fun. We went to Tillamook Bay at the
Oregon coast and went crabbing. (Yes Gina, we went early, but plan on
going next weekend for our feast on the holiday.) Not the best time of
year, but we got 16 and had a great time. Hunter's first time in the
boat. A little nervous, but we went slow at first, it took him about 15
minutes and he was having a ball, oh, look at that bird!! Can I catch it?... oh
wow, look at that water can I lick it??... oh feel the wind on my face, which
side of the boat is best?? I can't decide... Oh well I will just stand right on
the front with my feet on the edge... Oh yeah yeah the mist is on my face let me
grab it with my teeth.. chomp chomp oh yuck this water is terrible, where
is my water bowl, lick lick that's much better. It was low tide so we went
on the beach that is not usually there. WOW!!! sea shells sand, neither
taste very good... Oh there are more birds let me get one... run run... oh lets
roll in the sand. Man this is so great, but I am pooped!! 2 hour nap
in the boat with Krista and started all over again!!!
Needless to say we had a great day. The weather was
perfect. I have never been on Tillamook bay with a t-shirt and shorts
getting wet and not being cold. It is usually nasty, cold and nothing
short of several garbage bags wrapped around you will do. One thing that
surprised me, is that on the beach while Hunter was playing, the kids and I were
walking in the water, they had on their life vests of course, well here comes
Hunter, tearing down the beach stops, looks at me then looks at the kids and
proceeds to go out deeper in the water past them and herded them back out of the
water!!!! I am not exaggerating!! Then Krista went directly back into the
water and he grabbed a hold of her shirt and dragged her back out of the
water. (I got a picture of this because I knew it would be hard to
believe). Then he turned around to me and barked like "are you going to
help me or what??" It was great!! He is such a smart dog!!
Way to tired to eat crab tonight, to much work, its
pig fest tomorrow, So, what Hunter is wondering, is if he can have some
too? Anyone have an answer to that??
