the 4th

this past weekend we headed up with a group of andrew's friends & headed off to "sea ranch" in sonoma county.  relaxing atmosphere with no traffic, open fields, hot tub on the deck, someone else cooking my meals, other dogs for jack to mess with, & a beach filled with treasures!

notice:  all photos were taken with my phone.

on the drive in (therefore through a windshield) -- i couldn't wait!


on the trail to the water


J didn't like the open back stairs.




right off the bat we found a mini-crab!
yeah, i'm holding it like a tarantula...



these little guys were A's fave.



this one was my fave!


i will admit that any photo i couldn't get "doctored" up, i turned black & white...



i think J had a good time -- he had many mini-adventures & couldn't resist checking out all surfaces. 
luckily it was low-tide, so everything was exposed!

this one last photo is the only pictures i got from the house:

the group.

the primitive stairs.  loved 'em!
