Thanksgiving 2023

Thanksgiving pies included key lime, sweet potato, and cherry apple. We joined Greg and Steve for dessert, together with Steve’s brother and girlfriend, Vince and Jillian, visiting from Vermont. We learned how to play an Uno-like game called Mexican Train.

Thanksgiving Row 2023

Yes, we got up this morning for a Thanksgiving Day row, and it was a full boat! We went to the Crockett side of the Carquinez Strait beyond the bridge, so I got some perspectives with the camera I never had before. What a gorgeous morning in late November.

Halloween Party 2023

Halloween party where I went as a “Queen Fairy” (see tiara) and Shando went as a “Save Brittany” fan with the pet pig named Chicharrón. That’s some pig!

This was another great Halloween potluck with Vallejo Gay Network thanks to the Bregenzers.

Mark went as the corpse of Diane Feinstein. Too soon!

Happy Independence Day 2023

Proud American progressives!

Tabled at the Madhatter Independence Day Festival in downtown Vallejo, which followed the Madhatter Parade. They also had a dog parade which began in front of the booth for HSNB.org. There were amazing kites and a reptile exhibit next to us.

Head to Head Contact

Guest dog Charlie grew a little attached to me while his daddies were on vacation. No matter what, he had to touch my head at least to feel safe.
