At the Cottage

This week Curt and I have been on holidays and we decided that we would go up to Sauble Beach to his grandparents cottage for a couple of days, and see them.
We arrived on Sunday afternoon, and until Tuesday, all we did was lay around and read because it was so dreary outside.
On Tuesday, the sun was finally shining, and Lexy and I got up and walked down to the box and got Curt his paper,while he slept in. We decided that since it was nice we should take advantage of it, and we went to the beach for the couple of hours that we had before we had to leave. We had decided that we were going to go to the show in Owen Sound and see 'You, Me and Dupree', which was playing at 3:00 (it was very disappointing, funny, but it was one of those movies that had such a potential for being a great one, and it let us down so I would not recommend paying the extra money to go to the show to see it....wait until it hits the shelves).
We woke up today (not too early by all means) and it was a dull again. We were getting ready to walk down to get the paper, and it started to rain and did not let up for the entire day.....which really put a damper on our last day at the cottage. We lazed around all day. Curt watched television, I packed, and after we had dinner with his grandparents, we decided that we would head home. We were not going to come home until tomorrow morning, but when it was such a crappy day, we decided that if we woke up tomorrow morning, and it was sunny out, we would really not want to come home, and plus, Curt has to go into work tomorrow.
So, as you can probably see by the picture....most of our holidays so fare have been spent on the couch...being lazy.
When it's not raining, Lexy spends her time out on the back deck 'chippy hunting'...her favorite activity to do at the cottage. Again this trip to the beach, she was truly disappointed in her ability to catch anything!!!!
We did manage to get Lexy down to the beach this time (it is a private beach, and there is to be no dogs on it, so we have to go either first thing in the morning, which is kind of difficult for us as we are not early risers, or later in the evening). On the Sunday night we took her down for a swim. She is not a big fan of the water, but she did very well. There was only one time that she got away on us, and Curt had to chase her up the beach, and do a running dive in the sand to catch her (I wish that I would have had a picture of that, or a camcorder to catch him running as fast as he could in his bathing suit, soaking wet, after a drowned rat!!!!). I was defiantly no help to him, because all I could do was stand there, and laugh my ass off at the two of them (it was one of those moments that you really had to be there for!!!!). When they finally got back down to the beach, they both had to go in and get all washed off because they were covered in sand from head to toe due to the tackle that Curt had to do in the sand to catch Lexy!!!!
