Wanna see my low tide?

I know you do :)

While out walking the pups this morning, I couldn't help but go explore all the nooks and crannies that are normally under many feet of ocean. It was fascinating...

But first I made the pups pose on the normally-not-there rocks...

But I don't wanna pose...

Ok fine. But I'm bored...

I am smiling, mom. Leave me alone...

Why must I lower myself to such levels?

Although I do look quite majestic standing on these rocks...

Marshmallow: Whatever, Daisy. I look way better...

Daisy: I'm imitating a statue...

Marshmallow: Plus I'm up front. See?

Daisy: Still not moving...

Marshmallow: Hey, what's that over there?

Daisy: Statue

Marshmallow: Smells interesting...

Daisy: Still here...

Daisy: Now I'm the star...

Marshmallow: Pffftttt... whatever... 

Daisy: Don't make me tackle you marshmallow...

Marshmallow: Whatever... 

 I'm outta here...

Aha!! Food...

I swear the Marshmallow can find edibles anywhere. It's her gift...

Moving on to the good stuff. Time to reveal the shady underbelly of the ocean and what really goes on when there's 3 feet of water covering the rocks...

OK... this is not that seedy...

But look at the size of those starfish...

And muscles...

They are huge...

I'm pretty sure we have a starfish orgy going on here...

Yup. And not just starfish under this particular rock...

That's a lot of starfish...

After witnessing such depravity, it was time to round up the dogs and face the staircase of terror...

I hate that staircase... 

It takes forever to get to the top...

But once there, the view is quite nice...

Plus it shows how low the tide really is...

On days like today, life is a beach...
