Paisley takes a dive!

Just the other day, we went down to the swimming hole at False Creek. Surprisingly, Paisley seemed really interested in fetching the tennis ball - it's not something that we Berners are typically good at. Anyhow, Christine threw the ball in and Paisley was intent on getting it. After two minutes of running around the edge, she finally dove in to get it - check it out.

Another summer vacation!

Ok, yes - everyday for us is like the a vacation, but this is the time where both Richie and Christine spend every waking minute of the day with us, so this is real vacation. We loaded up our travelling house on wheels, and drove up to Kamloops. When we got there, not only were Lupin and Humphrey there, but also Harley!

We went for walks down to that "Peterson Creek" area again, and we'd wade in and cool our feet and get a drink too. Yes, that's me taking a pee in the middle of the creek - something about all that running water makes me wanna go for some reason.

We'd also go for a walk down to the school and run wind-sprints back and forth - after a few of those we'd go lie down in the shade to try and cool off. It's hot in Kamloops!

Then after two sleeps, we got back into the Rover and drove out to Shuswap Lake. We've been out there a couple of times before, so we knew exactly what was going on. Here's Paisley taking in the sights as we rolled into our campsite. When we got there, our next door neighbour had a Berner too... but not just any Berner, it turned out to be a relative of Paisley's, from Enstone Kennels, named Molly.

This year the water in the lake was really high - it made the beach area where we lie around in the sun very small. No problem for us however, as we can make ourselves comfortable pretty much anywhere.

After a tough day at the beach and walking around the campsite, we were tired out! This is Paisley and I trying to get some rest by the firepit one evening. Dog is it ever hard being on vacation!
