Gus goes to the Beach

After a few days of rain and high winds, we have had a few days of lighter breezes and sunshine. I took Gus for a long walk down to the beach just outside of the park, since he is not allowed on the state park beach.  The tide was going out but was still fairly high so it came up to the steps leading onto the beach.  There was no avoiding the water for Gus and he got caught in an oncoming wave right away. After that he ran from the water every time it got too close...fun to watch. He also enjoyed digging in the sand and chasing the birds.




The sand here is very orange -brown in color, unlike the Gulf sands which are very white. Along the roads here the sand is much whiter, so clearly some sand is imported from elsewhere.
