Visit to Marblehead



Just returned from a paws-itively fun weekend in Marblehead. Ma. with my St. Bernard 'sister', Matilda and her people - Auntie Marina and Mamma. I love having sleepovers there, Auntie Marina treats me like a Princess!!!! Matilda and I take Auntie Marina all over town - we sniff while she smiles at everyone we meet. We walk her to Crocker Park, watch the boats go by, then we walk her to the field and play with other rescued dogs. There while 'dig up some dirt', Auntie Marina chats with other dogs' people. What fun! We fetched a few new things at Liberty, Henry & Me, a cute shop on State Street. Liberty and Henry are Newfoundlands and their person, Kathleen runs the shop. A lot of fun things to wag your tail about here! So sit and stay for while and see what she can dig up for you! We bought a paw towel for Matilda so when she needs to wipe her paws, her elegance has a towel to do so! Next we sniffed our way over to Pawsitively Marblehead at 9 Pleasant Street and found some howl-arious canine coasters, and dog-gone tummy-rubbing good treats for dogs and their people!
While I was wandering around town with the 'girls', my people said they had dinner at Three Cod Tavern (their favorite place to dine) and more than enjoyed the Prime Rib and Lobster Stew...their corn bread makes my tail wag!
They decided to stay at Notorious Annie's for the weekend and said just watching the boats go by made them happy as well! And a few hours without my slurping helps, too.
Our tails were waggin' when we discovered a secondary trip to Maine was in store. My people wanted to go to The Lobster Shack in Cape Elizabeth. The Lobster Shack is very pet friendly and is set on the rocky coast. We met up with some traveling furry friends - The Chowder twins, Scallop & Clamy (Corgis), Taco Bella, the Chihuahua and Snowflake the White German Shepherd . We had to sit and stay while my person got us some food. But it was worth it and the views of the Maine coast made me whimper with joy!
All in all it was a gurr-ate trip and will return in December for the Annual Christmas Walk.
