How we like to spend a beautiful day:

With Diego, and in the woods! Not many options around St. Auggie, and one day I hope that we can drive less than an hour away and be straight up in the mountains. But for now, a nice jaunt around the intercoastal is sufficient to make our pup's day. 



I love my dad!!

I don't know what you are. But you are cool. 




Worthy of a Christmas card..


I love our town. I'm sure I've said it, but I never tire of walking around the fort and watching the boats out on the water. Today they were shooting off cannons, and we were in the right place at the right time!

Our hike/walk was followed by dinner at La Herencia, a Cuban place I've always wanted to try that's located away from the tourists on my favorite street in St. Augustine. The "Media Noche" pressed sandwich was delish-- I will be returning for breakfast and maybe some Argentine tango...


Diego was a good boy while we ate, and loved the attention from ever passerby. 
In fact, he's quite popular downtown. Frequently asked questions/comments:

"Is that a lab?" (Yes.)
"Is he a chocolate lab?" (Yes.) 
"Is he part great dane?" (No. Just a freakishly tall lab.)
"He's so beautiful!" (Yes, we know.)
"I have a _________ (insert type of dog here.) His name is __________ (insert name.) (Now comes a random story or fact about said dog.)"
"Can I pet him?" (Yes. Fail to mention he just rolled in something dead in the woods.) 

He saw a westie today, and, thinking it was Oliver, went NUTS. The owners nervously chuckled as an 80 pound behemoth lunged for their fur baby, tail wagging 90 miles an hour. Poor D, not Oliver.
