The Beach

The last two Sundays we've taken little drives around the area and checked out a couple of beaches. Last Sunday we went to Colonial Beach and took Roo into the water. He loved it! You'd never know that he's actually afraid of the swimming pool.

Though the beach at Colonial Beach is kind of a rocky sand, the water was warm and shallow. Roo and daddy played and played and you'd think Roo had been going to the beach forever. This Sunday we took a drive into Westmoreland County and went to Westmoreland State Park. The park is beautiful and we found our way down to the water. This beach was even better than Colonial Beach. The sand was much softer under foot which made it much more fun for all of us. The water was nice and warm, though a bit deeper, but Roo didn't seem to care. Daddy and Roo played in the water for a while and Roo was just as happy as could be.

We're going to find out if they allow dogs at the state park and pack a beach bag and start going on weekend afternoons after Roo naps. Baxter loves the water too so going with the two of them should be fun for the whole family! Oh, and next time mommy promises to bring her camera and get some pictures of the fun.
