So, while I didn't take any photos of the dogs on the beach while we were at Happy Camp, I did feel guilty about it. Guilty enough that I made sure we stopped on the way home and played on the beach for a little bit so I could get some pictures.
It helped that our last day was absolutely gorgeous. It was actually cloudy and foggy and windy at Happy Camp while we were packing up that morning. I did take a morning run with the dogs, and it wasn't cold on the beach, just wet and overcast.
As we drove south, however, it cleared up. Instead of fog and clouds, we ended up finding 75 degree weather (nearly unheard of at the Oregon coast!), blue skies, and just enough decorative white clouds to make pictures of the sky gorgeous.
Koira thought it was great to play in the water. This should be a good indication that it was warm out, because the Pacific Ocean is particularly cold, and Koira is generally a wimp about cold water. She didn't even start shaking at any point!
Such happy dogs totally loving the beach. Pallo was busy bugging my mom and grandma to throw a stick for him, and wasn't into posing at all, so I didn't actually get many pictures of him on the beach. Just the one above and the one I shared last week when we first got home.

And just a goofy picture of Koira. Because I love pictures of dogs shaking. |
It was just so gorgeous. Those of you who have never been to the Oregon coast may not appreciate this as much as I do, but man, it was AMAZING.

Good enough to get me to take a picture without the dogs in it! |
It really look amazing! I love those kind of places- they really are worthy of a dog-free photo! My favourite is of Koira shaking off.

What a beautiful spot and perfect day! It's amazing that it's still possible to find a stretch of beach with no one else on it. Koira and Pallo look so happy! :-)
