I actually arrived at the beach house yesterday around 3:30pm.  I unloaded the car, took Cody for a walk and then hung out at the house the rest of the night with a short trip for a fine dining experience at Taco Bell.  smile

Cody and I got up at 7:30 today, took or morning walk and now I’m enjoying some cafe con leche and croissant from Cafe A Go-Go. Now that’s good eats!

There is a Starbucks now at the end of Rehoboth Ave and as much as I love me some Sbux, it still doesn’t beat the home brew mexican coffees of of Cafe A Go-Go. I wonder how much business they have lost though.

Off to enjoy a nice relaxing day at the beach!

Made the trip in 4:15 which is pretty good with no stops. Cody and I did one last beach walk at 8am before stopping at Cafe A Go-Go to get one last cup of java with Beth and then say good bye and head for home. Always a bittersweet moment.

And rumor has it that the Chai Tea Latte at CAGG is better than Starbucks!  wink

*sigh* until next year…

There were tons of people on the beach and the Ave was packed tight. I’ve never seen it like this you’d think it was the middle of July. We attempted to walk on the beach but Cody was beat from the day befores excursion and just wanted to lay in the water. So back to the house we went for some A/C and then just enjoyed the weather on the sun porch.

Should be a quiet evening before heading back home tomorrow morning.

Even though it was October it was pretty busy, plus I’m sure the car show they had this weekend helped that as well. We walked all the way up and down the boardwalk and lots of people where stopping us to ask us about greyhounds. It was like our own little mini meet & greet.

It was a fun time but the doggies were exhausted by the time we got back to the car. They slept good on the ride home!

So if you have good eyes, you might be able to see Cody and I as we rolled out of bed early and were in the sea of people and greyhounds. 

]]> 2007-10-06T11:25:00-05:00 Friday Summary http://greyhoundtails.com/weblog/friday_summary/ Personal, Dewey 2007 Today was the big start of the event. Lots of greyhounds, lots of vendors and even more greyhounds everywhere.

The weather was a bit overcast but warm so it was a good day. Cody and I visited a few friends but refrained from buying anything… so far.

Not much going ons in the evening, or at least I wasn’t invited to anything. So it was a pretty quiet night just hanging out with some good company.

Isn’t it past those greyhounds bed time???

]]> 2007-10-05T01:47:01-05:00 We got our photo taken! http://greyhoundtails.com/weblog/we_got_our_photo_taken/ Personal, Dewey 2007 Finally after 3 years of trying Cody and I finally had our pictures taken by Praveen. We tried the past two years but the weather was never on our side, but apparently 3 times a charm!

I also ran into Robin and Linda on the beach. Loca was on her best behavior.  rolleyes 

]]> 2007-10-04T20:29:00-05:00 First walk on the beach http://greyhoundtails.com/weblog/first_walk_on_the_beach/ Personal, Dewey 2007 This morning, after my stop at Cafe a Go-Go, Cody and I headed to the beach at the end of McKinley for our first walk in the sand. We met Beth and Hope there and while we chatted Cody, being the big monkey that he is, jumped around in the sand and dug some holes. It was pretty overcast but still warm weather with a nice breeze off the water. It’s supposed to burn off by the afternoon and get even warmer as well.

Right now Cody is snoozing on the couch and I’m just finishing up my cafe con leche.

Wish you were here.  tongue laugh
