My Last Full Day in Cali

I'm feeling very thankful.

Thanks, donors, for getting me to 76% of my fundraising goal! (And for those of you connecting via Facebook, I didn't even contact Jeff Tweedy - yet.) Thanks, nieces, for a super-special auntie week! Thanks, Molly and Tom, for inviting me to this warm escape! And thanks for setting me up for another bike ride tomorrow before I skip town and head back to the MN cold. Woo hoo! There are a ton of exclamation marks in this post.

I went to Edgewood again today for a vigorous walk (I ran, yes ran, there yesterday). Here are the highlight photos, including another lizard shot.

I was missing my husband Dan and my dog Piper, both who would have enjoyed being out there, although maybe Piper would have gotten covered with the poison oak or would have been attacked by mountain lions (I saw big cat scat, yikes)? I'll be glad to see you at home Sat night, but maybe you should come out here instead?
