Beach Bums…

The other day Mike and myself were just sitting around when we decided to pack up and head down to St. Augustine for a few days. First BIG trip for Rocky, and the first since Niki’s accident. All did well….Niki better then expected. There are stairs in the house we rented….she mastered with very little help from us (just supervision). Rocky on the other hand needed a few days to become accustomed to them….now he is a pro going up and down them. Gemma, what can I say…..never any problems with Gem.
The trip was really to see my parents and of course getting the pups used to going places. As so often things happen when away from home….my camera has decided to go berserk. The lenses are not focusing….now with my vision problems I have thought it was me….nope, not me. Also…not matter what the setting….metering system….white balance in extreme lighting situations (like the dogs at the beach) the images are terrible. So….today is the drive home (if I ever get packed). Here is one of the images from the beach….more on that adventure a little later.
Gustav….seems to be huge. There were on and off storms yesterday (in Fl, east coast) that they said were bands from this huge storm….stay safe my friends!

Great shot of the kids!! AND, glad to see you all getting away for a change. Hope you had a GREAT time. St. Augustine beaches are so beautiful-just as is the picture above. Sorry to hear about the Nikon-bummer-hopefully not going to be a big problem.

It was great, even if only for a few days. I really miss the beach. Nice having your morning tea sitting on the deck….just watching. The dogs liked it as well.
