Along the beach


Spencer just loves our walks on the beach. He doesn't look like this for very long. As soon as he makes it down these step and on to the sand he is off into the water. It's the middle of winter and the water is freezing but he doesn't seem to care at all.






Often we are the only people on the beach and quite often we make fresh footprints in the sand . He never tires of running and sniffing everything and rolling in whatever takes his fancy after which he is encouraged to have a romp in the water in the hopes of eliminating whatever it was he thought smelt great!


I'm not sure that he actually takes in the splendour of the view of lighthouse and rock and cliff face and water. I've been lucky that there have been so many sunny days but it doesn't matter whether it is sunny or not as the view is beautiful regardless. The sun enhances it but when it is stormy and waves crashing the power of the sea and the strength of the cliffs and rocks is fantastic to observe.



Getting a photo of Spencer and me on the beach was the challenge I set myself. There was a very convenient rock which when I took the photo had us at an odd angle but thanks to iphoto I managed to get us looking a little more balanced. The special necklace with plastic bag attached is of course Spencer's lead!
