Bree-Oh-Knees

What a nice Thanksgiving weekend I had with my family!

Today Dad and I took a beautiful hike in Briones Regional Park in the East Bay and then went to visit my grandmother in Berkeley. I helped her out around the house.

Life is good.

Paradise Lost

They paved Paradise and put up a parking lot...

Then Mother Nature reared up and burned down the parking lot.

Yesterday Dad and I went for a hike in Chico Canyon, a place that was just barely spared by the devastating Camp Fire that swept through the area two weeks ago. On the way home we drove next to a part of the burn scar, and it was bigger than anything like it I had ever seen.

I feel sorry for those who lost their homes and even sorrier for families who lost loved ones in the disaster.

Best Buddies

Today I attended the Best Buddies Match Party and got my wish by being matched for a second year with Katie and Paola. They're both UC Davis students who volunteer for the program and they're both really cool. I look forward to a fun year.
