North Beach, MD Jul 06

Our plan was arrive in North Beach early Sunday morning. However, Nori stepped on a yellow jacket during her morning walk. After she allowed me remove the stinger from her paw, she played hurt for an hour - milking as much attention as possible. When we finally said, "looks like we can't go to the beach since you hurt your paw" she was miraculously better.
This was our first visit to North Beach. It's a really nice area - I was shocked Tina had never been since she's lived around DC her whole life. But the whole area is pretty underdeveloped - Tina is obviously not the only one who hadn't heard of it. With time, I'm sure DC will find a way to spoil it.

  • North Beach boardwalk. The beach area is really small but cute. Too bad they don't allow dogs on the beach (boardwalk/pier is fine). We tried to sneak Nori on claiming she was our hairy child. Tina even acted offended when they suggested Nori looked like a dog.

  • Bay Front Beach (aka Brownies Beach) - just south of North beach. This park does allow dogs. Small beach area - lovely ladies and trees both lay out.

  • Nori's second swim of the day. Her doggie paddle is patented Allen stroke work at its best. Her turns, however, are atrocious. She’s definitely a long course swimmer.

  • It's hard to pull off the sexy sun glasses look when your dog is spraying you with bay water. Tina was up for the challenge.

  • Refer to the first Nori picture for comparison. Nori now looks a bit tired and deshelved. Notice the sand stuck in her beard. It's been a long day.
