I always tried to get a room with two beds, and we all play jumping from one to the other.

On Fort Desoto Beach near St. Petersburg FL. Taro is 15 months old.

Fort Desoto

Fort Desoto

Dog friendly restaurant in St. Petersburg. Food wasn't good, but I couldn't beat the service and the ambience.

Even Taro was allowed to wander around the outdoors portion of this restaurant. People were calling him over, and he had the time of his life.

I bought them this new water toy, and it was really cute while it lasted...a few minutes.

May as well play tug o war with what's left of the toy.

After day 1 at Fort Desoto, I had to get Georgie set up properly. She gets very red in the sun, so needs some shade. Then I had to get her a kiddie chair because she kept sitting in other people's chairs. That's my little princess.

We visited Sanibel Island for one day near the end of our trip. Very pretty there, and dogs are allowed to be on the beach, but they can't run around off leash.

Back at the cottage, just before a nap.

When he's really tired, he curls up into a little ball. You wouldn't believe a big dog could get so small.

This was the aftermath of spending 2-3 hours at the beach every day.
