After a lovely lunch Sheryl and I put leashes on her doggies and walked them down to Totten Inlet in South Puget Sound. It’s a private beach for the residents in Sheryl’s neighborhood and it’s filled with oysters and clams – you’ve probably eaten them at a Seattle restaurant or one of the local Farmers’ Markets.
A cluster of oysters.
The doggies were unleashed and they ran to the water. They swam while we walked on the rocky beach and surprisingly they kept up with our pace!
And sometimes they ran up on the beach, sniffed seaweed, rolled in muck and raced back to the saltwater. They were so full of energy that the trek up the trail back home was nothing to them while I had to take breaks to catch my breath. And once we were back at Sheryl’s house, they sacked out on the deck...content little doggies that were happy they got in their daily swim.
My heart aches every day for Sitka. But hanging out with Moira and Garwin helped. Thanks Sheryl.

Cyn, I'm glad you got a good doggie fix. I wish you many more.
Glad to see you writing again. I know it is difficult. Ron & I are going with Debbie and her two pups to the Saturday Market tomorrow. Part of socialization she says. Wish us luck.
Love You
Betty & Ron
