day 1 of my "doodle and me" fall equinox getaway

[Sally]

OK so here i am at this quaint little cottage in Cape May, NJ (the Jersey Shore). Just me and Duncan.

The cottage was advertised and "more than dog friendly" and boy were they right! There were food and water bowls, a dog bed, toys, leashes and a pooper scooper when i arrived. And the house is decorated with the cutest dog accent photos and books. And a lamp that is filled with milkbones!!! (see pic).

It's so lovely and Duncan is enjoying an evening snooze now as the crickets outside chirp. He was a little anxious at first after we drove 2 1/2 hours to arrive at an empty house. He kept looking for where the people were...We spent most of the afternoon on the back porch.

Tomorrow i'll take him to the beach and then we'll stroll around town. I'll window shop:)

I brought my camera and figured i'd try for some potential calendar contenders.

This is my favorite time of year.Autumn begins on Wednesday. And the weather is absolutely superb.

I hope Duncan will treasure every moment of this trip. I know I will because i can't always do a "doggie and me" trip.

[Leslie and Halas]

That place sounds great. Have a wonderful vacation! I think the first pic is definitely calendar-worthy.

[Jodi and Stella]

What a nice getaway for the two of you. Good bonding time!

[Nina, Phil, Harlow & Lacey]

Wow, Duncan you are so lucky. I wish my mom would take me somewhere that nice. Harlow

Doodle accompanied vacations are the absolute best. Have a wonderful time. Duncan is so beautiful; those are great pictures. He has great eyes!!

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

This sounds like a dream vacation to me. I hope you both enjoy every minute of it.

[Leigh & Allie]

Duncan looks a lot like Allie. Check out my pictures of Allie after she has been groomed. They could be brother and sister.
