More Newport Pictures

Running on the beach with her cousin Megan. They are chasing after Scott, who is barely a blur in the photo because of fog.
Listening to marine animal sounds on the special phone at the Hatfield Marine Science Center

Octopus! So disgusting. She was fascinated. I hate animals in tanks...they're gross.

This is a picture of the jellyfish tanks at the aqaurium. I love how this picture turned out.

It is so hot here right now. It reached 108 today. It is the by far the biggest heat wave we've had since I've lived her (10 years). It is miserable. We're taking off for one of the mountain lakes tomorrow to cool off a bit. Sage is very excited about hanging out with her friends.

We spent a very long weekend at the vet's office this past Friday and Saturday. Our sweet Lucy (who my blog is named after) has been ill appearing for a couple of weeks. Finally took her in to the vet and she has something called "Idiopathic Vestibular Syndrome". It is basically vertigo (dizziness). She has been a little off balance recently and has this funny head tilt. Her appetite has been terrible. Well, after lots of labs, xrays, medications, and IV fluids, my Lucy is much much better. Almost back to normal, other than her cute little head tilt. It may never go away. She is 12 1/2 now. She's had a great life, but I'm not ready for her to leave me quite yet. Feeling so much happier now that she is better.
