Stockton's First Kayak Trip

What's a day on Hunting Island without Stockton? We feel so lucky to have this great resource only 15 minutes from the house. Hunting Island is so much more that a state park. It is a true escape from the real world, and it is so close to home.

We brought Stockton out to the tidal lagoon and put him in the kayak. He rode in it ok, but did jump out a few times. I think he jumped out more to cool off that to get out of the boat. Regardless, he did very well on his first kayak trip.

After his big paddle, in and out of the boat, we brought him down to the beach for a little walk and a romp in the waves...

He is honestly the best behaved dog ever. Even though he had to take a bath when he got home, I think he had a great day. He slept for the next 24 hours.
