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.
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.

When we went to the beach at Carmel by the Sea, Melody had a great time swimming in the waves and splashing in the tide pools.
At the end of Carmel Beach is the famous Pebble Beach Golf Course.
So we decided to check it out.
But, dogs will be dogs.....
Melody, have you no respect?

I've heard that a tomato juice bath works wonders if your dog happens to get sprayed by a skunk.
Fortunately, I didn't have to find out the hard way.
Good girl Melody!

You are making me homesick, @rightdx!
I'm originally from California, and absolutely adore Monterey. I moved to New York last year and have been missing my otters. Luckily, I adopted my sweet sweet Madelyn on my way here; she keeps me motivated & active.
