Beach Bums

July 30, 2012 by Britton_Riley

Look ma, no Scram!

Scram free at the beach!! Oh, it was wonderful!

I played in the waves until I was sea sick. It was magical!

Then I fell asleep in my beach chair for a little while.

And I enjoyed drinking plain old  juice more than ever before!

The boys had a great time too. We played frisbee until the boys were downright water logged!

After the big game of frisbee, we went back to our chairs to do some tanning….

Sir Higgins tanned his rump first. We kind of thought he looked like when the house falls on the witch in The Wizard of Oz….

We did some digging and others did some bikini watching. I think it’s pretty obvious who was doing what….

We took long walks on the beach in the evening and first thing in the morning. There were tons of other dogs there for Higgins and Fletcher to meet!

This was our evening walk after my mister and I came back from our dinner.

We were sad when the weekend was over and it was time to leave, but can’t wait to go back!

We got home around 3 yesterday afternoon after spending half the day on the beach. The car is loaded with sand and now so is my washer and dryer. I don’t freak out about those types of things, that’s why the amazing Oreck people exist….VACUUMS! My mister has trouble with that concept when he first sees all of that luxurious sand everywhere, but we’re working on it :) A little sand won’t kill anybody….hey, just think of it as a souvenir!

AND it’s fairly easy to clean up.

When we got home, I quickly filled the washing machine up with towels and headed off to the grocery store. I made dinner, bathed dogs, finished laundry, took a shower, and finally landed comfortably in my Tempurpedic. (Let’s just say….”resorts” that are dog friendly aren’t always the cleanest places….and let’s just say I was afraid of the bed and didn’t get much sleep the night before….and let’s just say we may be finding another place to stay the next time we go to St. Augustine…..)

Shew, yall….what a weekend! I’m pretty pooped for a Mondee morning!

    Congrats, Britton! So happy for you and hope that you enjoy every second of life without scrammy! I’m planning on getting a tattoo where I wore scrammy that says “always remember.” Best of luck to you and I look forward on reading more posts :-)

    I’m leaving to get my scrammy installed in a few minutes! Having mixed feelings – I guess that’s normal! I took a pic of my legs pre-scram!

      Well??? How did it go? How did your “installation” go and how was your first night with Scrammy? Just curious, when was your last drink? Good luck and enjoy your new little sober pal. I can’t wait to hear about your experience! Hang in there, it really isn’t all that bad :)

          Hey Vickie! Don’t be paranoid, you will be just fine. I can’t wait to see pictures! I have not been attending regular meetings, but that is simply because I’ve been so busy. Visit the In The Rooms website and see how you like it! I think I am Scram Girl on there, so if you decide to join, friend me!
