Spike on vacation!

 

We weren't sure how Spike would react to a strange environment that we would call home for a week, but we decided to take him along on our trip to Palm Springs. It took a little bit of coaxing, but soon he was enjoying the pool as much as we.
Of course sometimes it's better to ride around on a pool float with someone you know.
Other times you just have to wait until the adults are tired of messing around in the water. It gets a little boring...
After a dip in the pool, he made himself at home - we had to set out a third lounge chair.
And, Tuolumne doesn't have a large lawn like this one to chase Mr. Frosty around.
Riding on a raft is cool, we already saw that. This time it's Berlynn's turn to paddle Spike out.
"Ok, take me back, I need a nap!"
"I'm not sure why my humans call it a vacation, I do this every day."
On our last day we had time for one more early morning dip in the pool before leaving.
Riding home on Mom's lap is the best!
