Snow, Pooches, and the Beach

Growing up in southern California, snow days were not something in the vocabulary. I can remember going to the beach in December.
This year our friends across the country have experienced more than their fare share.

New York

Arkansas

Kentucky

Washington, DC

Baltimore


even Atlanta had snow!

And more places in between.

SO, I WANNA KNOW....


Is Your Pooch Properly Dressed?

Baby it's cold outside!

neoprene for boys...

...and girls

Poochy Uggs

Poochy Rainboots


It's time to get warm!
Let's head to 'The Don'

The Don Cesar, that is, on St. Petersburg Beach, Florida.



This beautiful hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places,
also known as the "Pink Lady" and can be seen so splendidly from up and down the beach.


a renowned oceanfront retreat is a favorite among many from all over the world, and moi too!

I say we friends rendezvous here and get warm together.


we can lounge by the pool


or sit on the beach,
aaahhh, the beautiful white sand of west coast Florida beaches


if you are not crazy about sand, lounge here where the view is spectacular
and get a massage too!



we can meet for refreshing 'adult' beverages in the beautiful lounge that overlooks the beautiful coast




the rooms are appointed in beautiful Florida style and colours




before retiring, doesn't this chocolate raspberry bread pudding look scrumptious?



So what do you say? Leave the kids with the Mr's and let's have a weekend away!

  2. ...Um, the only prob with heading this way (FL) is it was 30 degrees last night...and my bouganvillea froze!

    The doggie couture is the bomb, though!

  4. Oh my gosh Renae...our most recent post titles are so much the same...
    yet different...how funny.
    Thanks for reminding that I'm not the only one who thinks of their animal as the baby of the family...how silly animal lovers can be. Thank you also for the beautiful snowy and sandy pics!
    I miss the beach too!

  7. I wonder if Ugg's would concider making puppy boots, really comfy ones. This winter it's the only thing working for me....I even spotted sneakers with insides of shearling in the store the other day.

    Anyway, my kitty is ok again, but even if this is a cold place this winter, there is no chance in the world he will put anything on while taking his short strolls outside.....fuzzy little darling of mine!

    Take care,
    Ingela
