Out of the Rain & into some Sun!

Rascal - nose to the ground~

We decided to take Rascal on his first trip to a beach & see if we could find some sunshine! Whidbey Island used to be our "home away from home" during the years we managed apartment buildings.  We had two, three-day weekends a month & usually spent them at Ft. Ebey, back in the day that the campground was almost always empty.  

Our private Narnia where the girls spent their time hunting for agates on the beach, while Butch & I enjoyed Not being "on-call"!

When the Island County Historical Society http://www.islandhistory.org/home.htm started to build their new Museum in 1986, part of their fund-raising efforts were to sell personal "bricks" for the walkways around the new building.  Since we were there so often, we bought a brick.  Our first visit after the Grand Opening, we spent a while looking for our brick.  Finally -- there it was!  Literally under our feet, centered right in front!  It's the third row up from Rascal's paw.

Long story short, when family comes to visit, or friends, or pretty much anybody who's visiting us, mentions a day-trip to Whidbey Is., or we can can convince them that they Want to make the trip...  We're Sure to put the Museum on the "tour", then casually mention our brick :-)
