south boston harbah walkies

hi every bloggie

Free Smiley Courtesy of www.millan.net
whew it's been super hot here so I've been going places to keep cool.
The other day I went here. That's Carson Beach!
It's in South Boston and they have a super cool Harborwalk.
You can even download the audio podcast to listen
while you walk and learn about points of interest.

Oh you might notice, I'm wearing my new cooling vest.
I got it b/c I'm always running w/ momma and
anything to keep my furbody cooler is good to me.
Plus I think my gal pal Sagira wears one too - gotta be coolballs-right?
Here's me and momma before we got running.

Take a lookies. It was about 85F that day.
Ahh.. even for the harbah.. it was pretty.
Actually they keep the beach furry furry clean for a city beach.
In fact Logan Airport is right around the corner so planes fly super low
- a bit noisey but a nice place to walk, run, and hang out.

The harbah walk goes right past the yacht club....
I'm a regular seadawg! arooo!

So I got up on the breaking wall.
Sea breeze in my furdooo! Feels so good!

But to properly cool off, you gotta take a dip.
No worries... the recent spotting of great white sharks is off cape cod
which is south of here. That's just me.

Okay we finally reached castle island.
A really interesting spot b/c it has a fort.
You can get tours during the summer but
I like the spot b/c they have a hot dog stand.

Around the other side of the fort is a Korean War Memorial
People come and pay tributes here.
There are many war memorials along the path.

Momma has a really neat phone app that takes 360 panoramic images.
She took one here so check out the link http://360.io/cEQEqX
-if you can't see it below.
Rotate the image with your cursor to see it 360.

Then we follow a path that goes right across pleasure bay.
You are surrounded by water.
Of course- you have to see me running along it.
It's not a bloggie post w/out me running!



On the way back to the car, I refused to go further.
Hot dog stand! Hot dog stand! please please please!

Ahh shucks! it didn't work. Oh well.
If you ever make a trip to Boston, you'll want to check out
the HarborWalk if the weather is nice.
Hope you had funballs with me. TGIF

  5. NO HOT DOGS!!?!?? We didn't even know the depths of your mom's cruelty. That 360 app is pretty darn cool, though we're not sure why anyone would want to look at anything other than us.

    Glad you like your swamp cooler. Our ape is considering one (or four) for us.

  7. Norwood you look like you should be on muscle beach, showing off!

    I remember when the harbor and surrounding beaches were so dirty and smelly you didn't want to get close.

    Hotdogs must have hit hard times. Where's the foot long?

    Stumpy's keepin' the light on and the love cove warm for you ;p

    Happy, Waggin' Tails, FUREVER!

  14. Way cool place to walk Norwood...and yes...please watch out for those Great Whites! Speaking of Great Whites...a diver up in Sebastian spotted one a few weeks ago way down here in Florida! He had a video camera mounted on his spear gun & was a little bit shocked when a Great White swam by...yikes!
    stay cool...
    your cat pal,
    Bruce:)

  16. What a happy story, right up to the hot dog denial. How cruel.

  17. You always have the coolest apps. That 360 was really nice. And you look great in that cooling jacket. Mom wonders if we would wear one of those. But then we might need one for her too since we have to get her out in the heat if we are going to get a walk.

    Bet those harbor breezes must have been so nice. We would love to go for a walk there.

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
