My favorite time to visit the beach is in the fall, when the weather is still pretty nice and the summertime crowds are gone. Water wings, folding chairs and suntan lotion are out; quiet fishermen, the odd jogger or dog walker is in! This is Sally’s favorite time also, she thinks it’s always best when the shore birds outnumber the sunbathers. Another benefit of a crisp fall day at the beach is the constant breeze, with Sally’s ears at full sail.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here and across the sea!
Dogs Make Everything Better 
Happy Thanksgiving to you Erica.
Great photos, Happy Thanksgiving!
I lived in Norfolk, Va for a little while and I loved going to the beach with my dogs during the fall season so I do agree with you. Happy Thanksgiving to you too and beautiful pictures:)
That collar looks so great on her!
Happy Ocean-side Thanksgiving to you, and Sally, too!
Thanks for the compliment on the collar, and Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!!
Hey Erica…. I think Sally is beautiful!!! I am encouraging all the dog blog people I can find to read my post titled “sticks and stones’ to avoid a stick disaster. Let others know as well. Let my difficult lesson be an easy one for you and Sally

Thank you! And I’ll definitely check that out, much appreciated!
I always look forward to off-peak season at the beaches in the US cos dogs can finally roam freely! We were always trying to find dog friendly beaches in the summer but never really got to one.. Happy thanksgiving!
