We went to IOP, had a great time, good thing you reminded us about the poop bags! 'Bo' decided he needed to 'go' right there on the pavement as he got out of the car! At least it wasn't on the beach!
Loved the beach walk, but Bo wasn't thrilled, I think it was still too hot for him, he was ready to head home after an hour!
We have a Labradoodle and a Silkie Terrier that we bring to the beach. We thought the Labradoodle would love chasing the surf but it's our 12 lb. Silkie Terrier that body surfs. It's just hysterical. Glad you had fun with your dogs!
I would bet it is too hot for most dogs on the beach these days. They would be happier at home in the air conditioning....I have a black lab -- we are waiting until the fall/winter/spring and then he can enjoy the walks on the beach.
I'm not sure it's the heat that bothers Bo, although that could be part of it, I think mostly it's that he isn't really used to 'long' walks, he only has short legs (bassett) and he is quite happy just wandering around in the yard.lol.
We average around $140 a month in electricity, $80 for gas, and I thought we were paying about average. Just how high can we expect the utilities to get? I've never even lived in a house with AC, so I'm clueless as to what to expect.
We don't have to shovel snow many days out of the year either, Emily, but we live on such a steep hill that two inches of snow on the ground keeps us home if it's icy too. It gets pretty annoying! My youngest boy had a horrible sledding accident last year, so if I never see another snowflake I'm cool.
I live in a 4 year old 1750 sq 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom home and my electric bill is budgeted at $125./month (no gas). The weather here is much better than in Connecticut in my opinion.

Don't you have to pay electiric for a year though, before they will put you on budget billing? That is what we were told.

I haven't seen a $125 bill in 15yrs here. Last house was only 1,900 and we were still in the $200/mo. Now, fughhhet about it...House is 3,500 and bill is SKY high! I'll post it when the $400 bill comes in next week
Awanders said,,,,,"I was in Montreal last week and it was slightly humid and in the upper 70s and couldn't sleep because of 'the heat'
I am already picturing our move-in day on August 1st....."
Your gonna DIE if you think the upper 70's is hot! I wish you luck!
