Fitbitting with "Man's Best Friend" (upload dog photos here)

ANSWERED

 

We live in "Steinbeck country" (Salinas Valley/Monterey County), named after the famous author John Steinbeck. And just as Steinbeck documented his journeys with his beloved dog in "Travels with Charlie", I'm going to photojournal in this thread my "Travels with Melody".

 

A lot has changed in Salinas since the days of Steinbeck. But some things haven't changed that much. Today we visited the childhood home of Steinbeck, which has been restored to its original beauty.

Down the street from the Steinbeck House is the Steinbeck Public Library, with a bronze statue of the author at the front entrance. I don't think Melody's ever seen a statue before. At first she was puzzled that he didn't greet her - or even flinch one little bit.DSC_0047 resize.jpg

 

Then she surprised me and became downright ornery!

So I took her back to to dog training school for some proper obedience training. Of course, she passed with flying colors.

Today Melody and I went fitbitting on a beach in central California that's hard to get to, and we were the only ones around:

 

Miles to Conquer by David A Litman

 

It's a very clean, almost pristine beach, so when I saw this beer can washing up in the surf, I was a little upset, at first.  But when I looked closer, lo and behold, it was still sealed.  It wasn't just a beer can, it was a CAN OF BEER!  It was a hot day - so I don't know if it was a gift from the gods or just dumb luck, but it sure tasted great!  It reminded of that Corona commercial: "The Corona can always finds its beach":

except this was a Modelo.

So here's a shout out to whoever lost their beer - THANKS - it wasn't wasted!
