Home Alone

From the title of this blog entry, Bailey and I were in fact home alone for a couple of days while most of our family went off for a vacation. So, this is what Bailey and I were up to before the family arrived home..

Visited Steveston Village and watched people by the harbour, but when you're sitting there with Bailey it's more like people watching you and tourists wanting to take a picture with your enormous dog.

I wanted in on some of this picture action, so I found this pretty garden in the Village and had a mini photo shoot. This dog sure knows how to pose when she's not distracted by pigeons!!

This is Bailey's "Can I go into the water and say hi to those birds on the poles?" look.

I don't think I've ever seen so many turtles in one area before! Bailey and I stood there for a while having a staring contest with them but eventually gave up because those turtles were so good at the game I don't think they moved an inch when we left!

Bailey officially hearts Granville Island. We spent a while walking around, taking in the beautiful sun and scenery!

What a lucky dog, I was basically Bailey's personal chef for the past couple of days and she had gourmet dinners!

And after a long day of fun, fun and did I mention fun? We headed upstairs for bed, but for Bailey it's more like sprinting up the stairs... because she knows that she gets to sleep on her favourite bed - mom's comfy queen sized bed!!

Easter Hike

So every time we go hiking, Bailey runs off to find a muddy pond to jump into. Not only does she frolic in the dirty water, she lays down and drinks it! This time she found a pond all right, but when she realizes that we were walking away from her does she notice that she's stuck in a deep hole...

Now this is unusual. I've never seen Bailey play in the mud! And at the time she seemed to really like to get her paws filthy dirty! I mean she was digging in the mud and playing with sticks. She even laid in the mud and at that point I really thought that she was going to roll around in it!

By the end of our hike, our dirty dirty dog magically becomes pristine white! And our car ride home is filled with lots of doggy snoring!
