A Wolf?

Or just Dee Dee on the chase for the bumper? You decide.

Playing in the Shallows

It was quite windy on the east side of the island this morning, so the Red Head crew decided to go back to Bardot Beach on the west side. The water was flat calm.

After a few bumper tosses, Dad noticed some large stingrays gathering close to shore. You can see one in the upper right of the above picture. We weren’t afraid of the stingrays, but were afraid of what the crew might do if they saw them.

We decided to simply toss the bumper closer to shore were it was quite shallow. Dee Dee and Dora still had a great time.

That was until Dad spotted a shark circling. When you have crew members this sweet, you don’t want to take any chances. Dylan, Dee Dee, and Dora took an early walk back home.

Drink n’ Drift

Last night, Dylan, Dee Dee, and Dora went on a Drink n’ Drift. On previous trips to a Great Harbour Cay, it was one of Dylan and Dee Dee’s favorite events.

It was Dora’s first Drink n’ Drift. She was very excited, especially when she saw her new best friend, Diane, two dinghies over. But she did eventually settle down.

As for Dylan, he handled it like the experienced cruiser that he is.

Sweet Dylan

Dee Dee and Dora seem to dominate the kids’ blog. It’s always the bad child who gets the limelight.

Dylan is the good child and loves his beach time too.

Of course, being the senior member of the crew, he likes a good nap afterwards. What a good boy!

One Year

One year ago Dylan and Dee Dee set out on their 6:30 am walk around the neighborhood in Panama City Beach. They started their walk as a crew of two but finished it as a crew of three. That morning Dora came into our lives. Nothing has been the same…W…

Anticipation

Visitors

Dylan, Dee Dee, and Dora had some visitors. What appeared to be a momma and a baby manatee hung out in the harbor for quite a while.The crew was fascinated.

Jumpin’

Dylan and Dee Dee’s best buddy, Gracie, is the world champion when it comes to jumping the waves. The Red Head crew sure misses you sweet girl!

It’s not surprising Labs learn to handle the water and waves. Water is bred into their veins. Dee Dee loves jumping the waves.
So does Dylan. 
Dora has taken a little time but she is also learning to handle herself in the sea. Who knows maybe there’s a bit of Lab in those veins. Or maybe she just has some great teachers. 

Tethered

For those who have followed the blog for some time, you might remember that Dee Dee, in her youth, had to be tethered at the beach. She seemed to think she could swim to Portugal.

Dora is following in Dee Dee’s footsteps but she has decided maybe she can run down the beach to Portugal. Dad has decided to tether her instead.

It’s not slowing her down a bit.

She’s even taking a lesson from Dee Dee on handling waves. Air Dora?
