Patrick, Daniela and Leon had us over for a delicious brunch in the city, followed by a hike to Land's End and a picnic on Baker Beach... amazing Sunday on the SF side of the Golden Gate Bridge.

better than a backyard...

...is having a beach on the bay two blocks away. We don't spend too much time indoors!

run for the seals!!

O and I "Ran for the Seals" on Saturday at The Marine Mammal Center (the other side of Sausalito in the Marin Headlands). Four miles and a real *fun run!* Lots of dogs, strollers, families, and amazing goodies afterwards. Someone even made harbor seal cookies!


For years I spent every Tuesday night at TMMC in animal care, I miss the pinnipeds and the renovated facility is amazing!

A movie from a few years ago, tube-feeding an orphaned elephant seal pup with my buddy Brian. Unable to eat fish yet and without a mom to nurse, he needed electrolytes directly in the stomach for dehydration.

sunday hike in point reyes...

We went on a beautiful six mile hike with Annie and Sadie on a marvelous March day... kids in the packs of course, or we'd still be walking!


Collecting bugs along the way!
