We had a visit from some very dear old friends this weekend and we decided to show them some of the sights outside of San Francisco. So we packed up the truck and headed off to Capitola for a little stroll through the town and a slice of pizza on the beach - in my opinion, the quintessential California weekend.
Charlie was thrilled to be included and he bounded into the back of the truck, happily peeking his nose over the seat to remind us all that he was there. Tim was equally thrilled to have Charlie join us and he periodically rolled down the window so Charles could enjoy a bit of fresh air as we made our way through the Santa Cruz mountains.
Because they're from the "other coast" our friends have only been able to get to know Charlie through his blog and our endless tales of Charlie's superlative temperament. However, it didn't take long for Charlie to ingratiate himself with his inimitable charm.
Within minutes, Charlie and our old friends were snuggling up like old pals. (This is actually an extraordinary development as our friends are life long, shameless cat people!) Charlie even executed a few commands given by our friends (although not perfectly ... that's a topic for another post.) By the end of the weekend our friends were completely smitten and ready to go home and research Golden Retriever breeders. (Have I mentioned how much we love Charlie?!!)
