Glimpsed from a certain angle, an inadvertent truth appears.

Yaz has found his new favorite seat… maybe he thinks he’s part cat. #dogsofbluesky #blueskydog

It’s days like today when I miss my brother the most. We should be celebrating his 50th birthday… cancer sucks!

I was a teacher for over a decade and often had to spend a lot of my own money to make sure students had what they needed to learn each day. This teacher is asking for help with some classroom items - let’s help her out!

I’m afraid to be optimistic about anything in 2024, but this makes me happy for next season. #sfgiants

The northern lights were dancing this morning while running an early morning errand. I’ve lived in Alaska for over a decade and seeing the skies light up never gets old.

I can’t be the only one who loves to read and finally has time to sit and read for hours, then immediately falls asleep with a book in hand.

2024 has been a rough year for so many reasons. I am so thankful for the daily joy that Yaz and Lucy bring.

Not sure which brightens up the room more - the cozy new chair cover or Yaz and Lucy…. Of course it’s Yaz and Lucy! ❤️🐾 #dogsofbluesky #yazandlucy #blackmouthcurs

I grew up watching Giants baseball with my dad, a sportswriter for the Sac Bee. Several times a year, we would all drive to SF to catch a game.…

As promised - Lucy and Yaz content on Bluesky. These faces and their love are such a God-send.
