We started off floating down the Russian River yesterday with the annual Root Bear Float in two inner tubes that I’ve had for a couple of years. However, shortly into it, Shea’s burst, and like clockwork, mine busted about 15 minutes later. Fortunately, we could depend on the kindness of strangers and tagged a ride on the “Proud Mary” float with Aaron, Billy, Javi, and Christopher, so the day was saved, as we had many more hours left in the ride.

Carlos’ 60th Whodunnit
Pictures from Rot’s 60th birthday! It was a Whodunnit Murder Game, which was well-planned. I did not get the costume memo, unfortunately, but it was a lot of fun!
Polaroid photo included!

Perservering Doves
Since the dove couple nested in the plastic wreath on my front porch a few years ago (before the fire) I have seen them in the backyard when I’ve visited and wondered where they would nest while the house was under renovation. Well…..mystery solved!
Kitten Camoflauge
Rental backyard kitten doesn’t have any fear, although she was spotted by Snoopy and his entourage.

Rough Sunday Morning Row
On Sunday morning the early row had pretty rough conditions, but we persevered. The sun started coming out. You can make out the peaks of Mount Diablo through the clouds in one picture.
