We took Andi to the beach (Crissy Field) for the first time last weekend, but we forgot to take the camera. Probably one of the most beatiful views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the happiest our dog has ever been, and we forget the camera. Oops. We found out that Andi loves to swim, and cleaning sand from between a dog's paws isn't the most fun thing in the world. After I washed her off, Andi curled up and slept for 12 hours though. She was a happy dog.
Crissy Field was originally an airfield on the Presidio Army Base. In the 1990s the Presidio ceased all military operations and the base became part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Before it was an airfield, the area was a rich salt marsh (now there is a beatiful protected pond) and a gathering ground for Native Americans. It later served as the landing site of Spanish explorers and Russian, English and Boston traders. Today its a beautiful park, dog beach, and grassy area.
