"If you don't see the book on the shelf, write it." ~ Beverly Cleary
June went by quickly. Long days and moderate weather made walking and riding to work a breeze. It sure is nice to get home 10 minutes after I leave the office when I’m on the bike, and Maggie knows exactly how to use the time I save.

We were on our three week road trip down the coast just hitting the Redwoods and excited to hike through the massive trees. After driving on long winding roads, we arrived at the trailhead only to discover that dogs were not allowed!! Since we weren’t about to abandon our hike and head back to the 4th of July crowd in town or leave our pooch in the car, we emptied our bacpack of goodies and stuffed her in and hit the trail.
This 4th of July we’re heading out for a stroll, but this time we’re packing Maggie and Sydney is happily leading the way from the ground.
Hope you have a safe 4th.
1. My dad and grandpa both have the same name – my dad stole my grandpa’s nickname when he was in first grade.
2. I didn’t ask them to stand like this when I took the picture, but I like how they are both looking at the camera.
3. They are handy: my dad carries a Leatherman and my grandpa carries a Swiss Army Knife.
4. My grandpa is very, very funny, but has a serious compassionate side to him. He is a great man.
5. My dad is very, very smart. He has a library of his own books that is the same size of our guestroom. He too is a great man.
6. My grandpa likes to wear collared shirts. My dad likes to wear T-Shirts.
7. My dad drives a truck he calles The Truck of the Future. My grandpa drives a car that is WAYYYY newer than my dad’s truck.
8. I never really thought they looked alike until I saw these pictures.
