Helen Keller said: "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." Our day started with a trip up to Mom's alma mater, Sonoma State University, where grandpeep, H, was competing in a Cheer competition. Here she is on top - woo hoo!
Since we were close to Crane Park, where Mama used to play frisbee golf (yeah... funny!) with some pals, Ma and Pa thought it would be a great parkie for some fun!
Unfortunately, the rules said that we had to be on leash - yuck! So we soldiered on, even though we caught these guys below with a pupper offleash!
If you haven't ever played frisbee golf, it is really cool! You have to have special disks and do they ever fly!
Some pix of the scenery on the way to Crane Park. The vineyards are in their fall majesty! Momzers and Dad decided that we would spend our special MOMENT at the Mt. Burdell Open Space Preserve, where we could go offleash and see precious views of the San Francisco Bay and beyond.
Pretty soon, it was approaching 4pm... for us, 11:00 pm GMT. Mom gathered us to her as best she could and we all thought about those we loved and missed as well as those we love and are in pain. We couldn't light a candle here, cause we didn't want to start a grass fire or anything. but we felt the power of thinking... with so many of you across the planet. It was very powerful.
Then, we had to go and play in the grasses, before it got dark.
And before we had to go home.
And before we died of thirst... We spent today extremely grateful for what we have... life itself.
Helen Keller got it right.

PeeEssWoo: I khouldn't see text either until I opened the khomment window
Oh dear... don't know what to say, cause Mom is so puter-challenged. We're all going to sleeps but maybe it will work itself out in the night? Nahhhh. We'll try to work it out in the am. Maybe it has to do with the new backround we put in today? Anybody know if that could be the case?
Beautiful hikies. Go Hannah!
We could see pix and text. Sweet trails :)
Hugs and snaggle-tooth kisses,

Woof! Woof! Great photos ... interesting that Avalon is leading your walk. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
FYI: Mmmm read your post on blogger dashboard/google reader saw some words associated with the photos but no words when visited your site. Not sure exactly what's going on ... Woof!
I think that those of you who use google reader may be the ones not seeing text. Back to the drawing board to see what's wrong - must have something to do with the new background - will contact designer to see if she knows why this is happening - ack!

We are connecting directly to your blog and can't see the text either. It must be something in the settings for text. But when we read it in Google Reader, the text is there.
In any event the photos are just beautiful.
Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
Maybe it is the color of your text?
