Sunshine!! & Lincoln Park

Hi furiends, Ernie here. It was a sunshiny day & we went to one of our favorite places. Lincoln Park. I am trying to get everyone's attention, & get them moving so we can explore & get our sniffers working. The 2 leggers were busy looking at the scenery & talking. We went along the beach & met some nice 4 legged furiends. M didn't get a picture but there was a very sweet PitBull & a German Shepard. Both of them were rescues too. We walked together for awhile. Mom said it was good "socialization"or some such thing. Chica did very well & she didn't growl or anything.
We wandered & sniffed along the beach & on the trails up from the beach. Great sniffs.
Hana is one of our furiends. She & her Dad went with us. They lives just down the street from us.
Sammy & Chica - waiting for the hoomans to quit checking out the view. All of a sudden there was a BIG sound of the waves hitting the shore. BUT no boats or ships in site. The hoomans never did figger out what that was all about.
I had better things to do than wait for them to get moving again. So many sniffs, so little time to check them all out. Think a squirrel just went this way...Sometimes they just sit & watch people. They don't seem afraid.
Beach view.
Those round tubes are the vents for the restrooms. They are built into the hill.
After the walk, the 1st thing Chica did was to take a nap. Maybe her little feets were tired??? It was warm so M put some water in our pool. Check out the video clip. It was her first time seeing it and she actually got in all by herself to check it out. M & D thought it was cute the way her lil butt went up in the air when she jumped in & the way she kept at least one foot in the air. Probably more pool pics later. Always an adventure to go there. We (M & the hoomans mostly) were hoping to see the Bald Eagles. But they were nowhere to be seen.

  3. What a fun walk at the beach. It looks like there would be a lot of good sniffs around there. It's so nice to meet new friends. We run out of patience when momma stands around and bla, bla, blas so we sure know what you mean. Hope you had fun in your pool.
