So off we went for a lovely stroll and at some point Mom says ...

How about going to the beach ?

That is simply amazing ...

I don't know how Mom always guesses what I feel like doing ...

Oh Eurydice! We just love travelling with you and your Mom! We just love "being" with you and your Mom!

WOW! Cane Corsos are big dawgs, but next to you, they look like Chihuahuas!

Seeing you so happily digging and frolicking at the Beach, seeing you patrolling the Beach, actually, everything you do at the Beach, or anywhere, brings smiles to our faces!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

You are amazing Eurydice,absw amazing!!

We love you and your Mom!

Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

I love the 'beach patrol' photos- they make you look even more gigantic!

And on that topic, only you could make a pair of Cane Corso's look small big-grin

Great photos as usual. I especially like the the golden light in the L'Esterel shot.

It makes my day to see you so happy and enjoying life to the fullest. I have so much to learn from you.

Sweet dreams dear Eurydice and Teresa.
