Not-A-Garden Tour: Silly Woofies
at the Albany Bulb

The Human and her friend took a nice walk last week on the Albany Bulb, a strange piece of landfill that juts out into San Francisco Bay. This little video shows the view from bridge-to-bridge on a cold and foggy day. However, evidently the woofies (thrashing in the water and playing fetch at beginning and end of our little movie) did not read the weather report, or care about it. *I* and the rest of my kind would rather curl up in nice warm beddies and conserve our energy for more important pursuits, like stalking Human ankles and toy mice.

There's also a boatload of strange artwork* on this little promontory, but that's a post for another Thursday.

* Like this face painted on a piece 
of broken rebar and concrete:

That looks like an interesting place, Spitty. And while we're glad those woofies are having a good time, we agree that it's silly to thrash about in that water -- 'cause it looks choppy and COLD! Much better to curl up where it's warm and comfy. :)

Brrrrr. We watched it once - Ă„iti watched it more as she was envious of the waves and the view.

Nice ocean but it looks COLD! Love your new header.

Really proves that kitties are smarter.. Wouldn't catch a kitty risking getting sick by swimming on a cold day. That's just courting the vet!

Star says; I hope you can come over and play on my new toy with me. Maybe we can keep the barbarian from ever touching it if we work together! Purrrrr

Those dogs sure look mighty happy trashing around in the water. In fact, I think *I* might enjoy playing in some water myself...

We agree with you Spitty, better to stay at home and be warm and safe! Lee and Phod

Looks interesting. But woofies act like fools sometimes. They should conserve their energy!

I just love the ocean on cloudy days! Those pups are having so much fun, but the very best part is coming home to a nice, cozy fire after being out in chilly weather :)
