“A simple life is good with me. I don’t need a whole lot. For me, a T-shirt, a pair of shorts, barefoot on a beach and I’m happy.” – Yanni

Saturdays are the BEST day! I still managed to get to the beach by 6:30 am after only getting home after 1 am! Pretty impressed with myself 🙂 But, I could not have done it without my best friend, who lives for our weekly outings to the DOG beach…yes, you heard me, THE dog beach! The very first dedicated leash-free dog beach in the US – where doggies can run free, chasing balls, chasing each other, swimming in the waves and river and have bucketloads of fun! There is, of course, doggie etiquette, which all must follow. And, for the most part, all do follow. It is the most amount of fun that Riley has ever had, and to think we were actually worried that he might just not be a Cali dog and hate the ocean, with only ever really experiencing countryside New Jersey and riverside Michigan. Not many dogs can claim to have swum in both the Detroit AND San Diego rivers! Grateful and happy with the simple life of getting up early on a Saturday to throw the ball on the beach with sand between my toes (and the enormous smiles of a hundred happy beach-going dogs of all shapes and sizes)!
