Big Bear Summer Fun

While Derek got nursing duty for Shasta recovering from her latest knee surgery, I took the boys for a last summer jaunt up to Big Bear before school starts this coming week...
We had a great time at the cabin and the weather was beautiful...here we are at the Village...


This year's new find was the Swim Beach - a great little place for some fun in an offshoot of the lake...



We also visited a local park...


...and the zoo





Here We Go Again

Poor Shasta girl started limping on her right leg - we pretty much knew right away that it was likely her other knee's ACL was tor - almost a year to the date of her left knee surgery last year -- so.....another trip to the doggie orthopedic surgeon...and more bandages, cone, staples and recovery!



This last weekend (8/13) Shasta got her staples removed - bandage was taken off a week earlier -- she's doing well! We're on to the "got to reign in her energy" phase as she wants to chase deer and squirrels on her 5-10 min walks -- ay yi yi!!!
