Nico saw the boat snacks come out and thought there might be something in there for him! It was a gorgeous day to be out on the water. Nico also enjoyed being able to run around on shore. He got stung or a sliver in his paw at one point; poor little dude yelped and barreled back towards Shelly and me. A minute or so later and he was back to his normal self.
