I think Mattie would be a sailor if she could. Here, she’s looking out at the water and longing.
Mattie is back at the beachie fishing away. She loves going into the water and scooping stuff up.
Mattie gets to enjoy the beach all by herself. It’s certainly a rarity these summer days!

Something got Mattie’s attention and she just had to look.

When sitting on the beach. Mattie in sheepdog mode on the beach, watching everyone around.
Stretching out on the sand, enjoying the feel. Remarkably, we did not bring the whole beach home with us in her fur.

Soaking up the sunshine and drying while getting super sandy.

Enjoying the day by the beach.
