Rainier goes camping


Prior to leaving the US, every summer, we had a camping trip at Antler's RV campground where people from California made the trip north and people from Oregon made the trip south for a week of sun and fun.
We decided to continue with that event again and so... Rainier goes camping for her first time.


Jessica, Rainier and I drove down to Eugene a day before the camping trip to help the Chans load up and buy food and drinks for the trip.
From Eugene, we made the 5 hours drive to Lake Shasta.
Rainier was my co-driver.



Yeah, as you can tell, not a very good one. All the other vehicles had drivers who could text. Mine, well, she hasn't quite learned how to do that yet.

When we got there... she had friends there.

Mitsu, the 3 month old Great Dane pup.


Remi, the Formosa Mountain Dog from Taiwan.


And Bella, the HBIC (Head Bitch in Charge), the Pomeranian who really doesn't quite like Rainier.


We know Rainier's breed is used as a water rescue dog. However, we had never taken Rainier swimming and had no idea if she knew how to swim.

Well, she does. And she loves it!!


We took her out swimming almost every day we were there.


And when she needed a break, she either hung out on the boat...


or hung out on the shore... alone...


or with people...


having a Coor's Light...


or a sip of Corona!!!

And at the end of the day out in the sun and swimming her butt off....


she hung out at the campsite...
sometimes, too beat to even lift her head out of the water bowl...
