TODAY
Tommie
Woof woof everyone. Dad has got his camera back yesterday all cleaned and perfect. We will use it today when we go to a party for 3 years olds. All the family will be there and all the kids will be dressed as angels. Not very inventive I must admit but that's ok.
I'll probably have to sit outside but then Dad promised we would go to the ocean. Just thinking about it makes me happy. The smells are to me are what presents are like to the little kids. But you don't have to take the wrapping off. I am thinking seaweed ... and the remains of crabs ... and then the plunge into the surf after a stick or a ball.
When I was young Dad was considered letting me go on the pro-Dog surfing circuit I was so good. I used to wait between the waves and charge in after the ball. Then as I came back people would cheer. I felt exactly the same when I caught a wave as I imagine human surfers do.
But I don't want to be one of those dogs who just talks about the past. Even as I get older I've still got it all in front of me ... starting with today.
I hope you are enjoying the blog here. It is a better place to read from and it gets you on to our website and makes you want to become a SWAGGY so you get the newsletter daily.
We want you to be part of the pack.
Woof Woof Tommie xx
