Cap'n Jack Gets His Sea Legs

Our friend Mark invited us to go over to San Francisco for a benefit called "Dog Day Afternoon" put on by the retail store Pawtrero.  It's a benefit for the Muttville Senior Dog Rescue, and only a few blocks from a berth at South Beach Harbor.

We got the boat in the water in Alameda, got Jack and Mark's girl Maya (THE Mayanator!) secured, and coated (it was pretty chilly starting out, and we blasted across the bay!

You'll want to turn up the speakers for this one...

We had breakfast at Red's Java House, and threw some discs on the lawn.  Yeah.  That lawn.  That lawn right there...

We had a great time with all the dogs at the Pawtrero event, but I didn't get any pictures as there was so much going on, I couldn't handle Jack with one hand and the camera with the other!

We had beers at 21st Amendment, where Wendy joined us...

It turned out that I won a $50 gift cert to a local restaurant in the Pawtrero raffle!  So we headed back to the event to meet more dogs, hear more music.  Things were starting to wind down, so we stuffed our pockets with treats being handed out by various vendors, and headed back to the boat.  You can see that Maya is the REAL captain here....

It was a Grand Day Out!  I think the only thing a dog likes better than a car ride is a boat ride!
