The Brengenzers threw a wonderful Halloween Party with DJ and all. Shando went as Lt. Dangle from Reno 911. Can you guess what my costume is? I thought of the enhancement to my pirate costume at the last minute, but I realized it was off-color and it did actually offend a few people, but isn’t that the point of Halloween? Brownie points to those who figure it out!
Halloween was in the air at the Farmers Market on this day when we tabled for Humane Society of the North Bay, as volunteers and I do about once a month year-round. In hindsight, we REALLY should have had some candy to hand out. Oops.
While not studio portraits, Shando did a great job documenting our dogs after most of them were cleanly sheered.
Other pictures of our dogs lounging around:
I tabled for the Humane Society of the North Bay again at the Greater Vallejo Recreational District‘s first Pup-kin Patch Dog Festival. Shando came later with our most ambulatory dogs and he caught the eye of a photojournalist.
Our friends have a pet pig named Chicharon. He has two canine siblings and wags his tail all the time. What a life!
Vallejo Gay Network potluck at the Bregenzer house with Chicharon the pig, who we fell in love with!
As a Board member and current Board Secretary of the Humane Society of the North Bay, I table a lot of events. This one was well-documented. We had a lot of great volunteers there and it was a well-attended event. It was only the second year, too!
As a result of my tabling for LGBTQ Minus Tobacco at the Fiestas Patrias event in Vallejo recently, the organization was asked by James Hogan Middle-High School to table in their quad for National Coming Out Day (October 11). Interestingly I attended James LOGAN High School in Union City.
As a proud Vallejo citizen, I was glad to meet the principal and other staff members who appreciated the information and hand-outs we had for the students who we were glad to see swarm our table when we were there.
We seemed to be well-received, not only by staff, but many of the kids, even if a few of them may have been surprised that we were a queer-focused organization. Staff member Judith Lerner had the kids sign this beautiful banner at the table next to us:
