Beach Patrol

We were up at 5.30am on the dot so we could head to the beach and watch the sun rise - it is a good thing we left early as our entry to the MY park also crosses the road that leads to the main gate of the Mayport Navy Base and with all the extra sailors in town it is bedlam getting there. What normally takes us 10 minutes took half an hour today - don't those guys and gals know I have important duties to attend to!  The first photo shows the sun as it was just starting to come up and the second one shows the sun finally above the horizon.













And then here we are in the sunrise - which of coarse dims in comparison to our handsomeness :) Now I have a terrible tale to tell - can you believe what Mom did to me - we were walking along and she and Dweeb found a narrow spot in this big puddle and crossed over to other side - I was way ahead and when I looked back I saw them 'over there' and couldn't get to them. I stood there barking and barking at Mom to come and show me the way as there was NO WAY I was going to get my feet wet walking through the water. But I am nothing if not one smart doggie and found a way across a bit further down the beach - here was my happy smirk at Mom cause I figured it out and kept my feet nice and dry :)

    I love a good sunrise, pals! Especially when the first colors of dawn are pinks and purples! What a great way to start your day.

    Wow, that's the most gorgeous sunrise ever! You're so lucky to have your very own park and beach. My crabby girls heartily approve and say it's lovely there. Great job avoiding the wet paws. :)

    Thank goodness you made it in time for the sunrise, and you cleverly circumvented the big puddle.

    Of course the sunrise looked better because it reflected your handsomeness! And maybe your cleverness too!

    Your Pals,

    You are so smart Reilly! You figured it out all on your own! I didn't think Dweeb..ummm...Denny would like to get his feet wet either! Beautiful sunrise, worth getting your feet wet you know...it won't kill you. But Katie wouldn't have walked in the water either, guess you guys really are a prince and a princess!

    Well, first you gotta pull rank on the sailors and let then know how important you are and you have important beach patrol duties that have to be done. And second, high paw for showing mom how smart you are. Love your photos.

    Aroo to you,
