Surfing? No Way

Mom was flipping through the L.A. Times and came across some pictures from the Surf City Dog Surfing Competition. She looked at the paper, looked at us and did a double take. Oh no we thought.

Nothing against water or surfing but come on mom, I am from Pittsburgh! Lily may be
into it being that she is a California girl. Mom, imagine the expense! Surfboards, life vests, goggles...a better choice would be bones, cheese, stuffies....I have a strange feeling mom is up to no good! Can you imagine!!

Well, any way friends we wanted to share a few pictures from the contest. Wish us luck we will remain on dry land!

Your friends, Benny & Lily
