A Day of Photos from Castle Island

So here are more photos from today’s outing at Castle Island.  I had so much fun today taking pictures, and it’s always nice to be able to expand my subject matter a little bit.  While we were out, Chelsea (Fenway’s Mom) mentioned how she never has any photos of her and Fenway together, so I took it on myself to turn today’s outing into a photoshoot of her and Fenway.  I think that I got some pretty good shots :)

In addition to me having fun with my camera, it was a blast just to walk around with the dogs.  There were so many people and dogs out and about and it was just a beautiful day to be outside.  The dogs played, and walked, and posed and had tons of fun :)

So there is a story behind the last photos of Bailey in the tree.  They had some of those trees up on the hill and they just looked so cool with their winding, twisting branches.  So before we left, I wanted to go up there for some pictures.  I realized when we got up close that it would be difficult to capture their “coolness” in photos up close.  Craig made a silly suggestion about putting Bailey in the tree for the photos, and of course I was like “Yes!  Lets do it!”  Bailey was a good sport about it and sat in the tree despite being super confused as to why we stuck him up there.  Best part of all, he stayed perfectly still for the photos because he had nowhere to go :P

Well that’s it.  This is the first time in a while that I have had such a hard time choosing between photos to post.  I think today was a pretty successful outing and photoshoot :)

Day 21: Kings of the Castle! (or Castle Island)

Today was an absolutely wonderful day.  The snow from yesterday quickly melted with the beautiful sunny 50 degree weather.  The 60s and 70s are more my ideal weather, but it still felt great out today.

We spent the day with Bailey’s oldest friend, Fenway.  Fenway and Bailey were in the same Puppy Obedience training class when they were 4 months old.   Fenway is Bailey’s “Best Big Friend.”  Fenway is the only big dog that Bailey will wrestle with.  Other big dogs, he is nervous about them getting too rough and hurting him.  Fenway, on the other hand, can chew on Bailey and treat him like his own personal squeaky toy, and Bailey absolutely loves it.

We ventured out to a place on the Boston Harbor called Castle Island.  This was our first time bringing Bailey there and it was really nice.  We decided that going there will become a regular thing.  I’m going to do a second post later, either today or tomorrow, with more photos (I got tons…) and stories from today’s outing, but I wanted to get today’s 365 photo up first.
