The afternoon of Pop’s (BFBJ’s) birthday, he and I and our two daughter, two grandsons and crazy french bulldog headed to the beach in Santa Cruz.

They have a great beach there that is kind enough to allow dogs to visit.

aaahhh...life is good

This guy is certainly happiest when he’s on the beach!

Mimi, who never travels anywhere without books, enjoyed the sand true to form.

chilly water, but hot day so it worked out

Happy Birthday Jimi!

Beach bums!
