Happy Wagging Tail Day

So we went to the ocean today. I am sure that if you check Kat's blog there are pics. Little Henry got his first trip out and to the ocean in. I have never seen a tail go so fast on such a little dog. He was all excited to be out, and all the new smells were a treat for him I am sure. He got a smorgas board of food too, there was escargo, earthy crunch (dirt) , hard as rocks, and the every famous cone a la pine. As if that wasn't enough he came over to play with the cats. They had a great game of run and hide from the little unknown beast going. Matrix was still trying to play King Of The Shit, and eventually won. For dessert Henry got a complimentary Anything You Find On The Floor. Luckily for us, there wasn't much. He was well behaved when we were sitting on the floor eating though. He laid down and "drilled for oil" as his Master put it. That tail never stopped. I did hear that he paid for all the new tastes later. Sorry little guy. Must have been the cone a la pine. I hear they are not the best.
As for the rest of us, it was an adventure. The grill wouldn't start because of the wind. Most of us were cold, except Jen, who by the way is the only one not from Maine and use to the weather. Kat and our special friend (and not little school bus) went to go get lighter fluid. It was Sunday, so guess what. Yep, no fluid, no cookout. As we start to pack up, someone has the bright idea to blow on the little flamage we had and got some more of the grill to go. Now if we had thought of that to begin with, we might have eaten there instead of coming home to cook. Personally, I am glad we ate in a warm cozy house with beer and wine in the fridge. Jen got to eat her first red hot dog. The verdict, "better than the turkey dogs." Red meat wins again. I went out tonight and got her a Moxie. Let's see how that goes over. Probally not "better than water." but we can hope.
Thank you all for coming today. I know I was tired and somewhat grumpy, but I did have fun. I think the two highlights that I can mention are the car ride with Henry and his Master and then the playing of games with Jen. I miss the Playstation games. The one I can really mention involes my wife. I love sleeping next to her.
Off to play my computer game or the Playstation. Or both. I know Henry is sleeping well today, and during warmer weather we need to do this again.
