Hideout Trail

Ellen and her "squeeze" Guinness posing in front of a fabulous view of Skilak Lake and the Russian River. It was a gorgeous Sunday afternoon and Ellen, the dogs and I decided to get out there and enjoy the fall colors.
Hideout Trail is only 1.5 miles - but, it's straight up. It didn't take very long to hike minus a LONG break at the top with some yummy PBJ's and tea.

Venitian Dogs

Our trip to Venice Italy was surprisingly full of DOGS!!!

Off leash, on leash, inside coffee shops, sitting with their owners in piazzas . . . basically ALL OVER! We loved it and took A LOT of pics. Can't wait to share - but here's the first of many dog pictures that we took. - Amanda Motonaga

"water gate" of our palazzo.

No, Nixon wasn't there.
