End of Winter Break

The last weekend of winter break was a whirlwind!  I left my externship in Salinas, CA on Saturday and drove down to my parents' house to pick up Levi who they had been babysitting for me.  The next morning I packed up all of Levi's belongings and drove up Hwy 1 with my sister, her fiance, and my parents to look at wedding venues in Big Sur.  The views on the drive were incredible (as is their selected wedding site). 

After lunch in Big Sur, Levi and I split off from the group and continued the drive north back to Davis.  Levi and I got to stop for a short time in Carmel on the way home though so Levi could romp on the beach.

Levi was right in the middle of fetching his toy from the waves when two scuba divers emerged from the water and startled him.  He didn't know what to think of the scary sea monsters so he barked at them to try to scare them off.  We worked a little bit trying to build his confidence around the scuba divers but I didn't think until after we had left that I should have given them a treat to give him.  Oh well, maybe I'll remember that for the next time we see scuba divers at the beach.

Overall it was a beautiful day and a great end to break. 

Perla Bed Sleeping Positions

Levi loves sleeping in his Perla bed.  I happened to get a couple pictures of his favorite sleeping positions.

End of Vacation :(

Levi and I had a great time at home with my family for the last three weeks but today it was time for me to pack up and head back up to Davis.  Levi is staying behind at my parent's house for an extra week because I'm going to be visiting a vet clinic and can't take him with me :( .  I know he will have tons of fun and be well taken care of while I'm gone.  He probably won't even miss me.

I think he did notice that I was packing today though because he decided to hang out under the bed while I packed.

Post-Finals Trip to Tahoe

Right after finals were over Levi and I decided to make a day trip up to Tahoe to go snowshoeing.  I had planned to go to a new location but we got a later start than planned so we went to Echo Lake where we've snowshoed several times before.  Unfortunately there wasn't much snow there yet.  We were able to snowshoe for an hour or so and then I took the snowshoes off and we hiked another trail that didn't have much snow.  There was still enough snow to make Levi happy though which is the main reason I go anyways.

This trip I decided to bring his favorite ball to play fetch with in the snow.  He had so much fun with it!
