Celebrating with the "C" dogs...

Ralph/Koala puppies, Cachet (Dale) Camber and Canby are all looking wonderful for their big 12th birthday. Thanks to Carole and Rich for hosting a fun and festive birthday brunch. Along with Christy and Mark, Allen and Butch and the Russel and I, we celebrated the special day with delicous food and drink. Now it's on to lucky year 13!

Big Birthday @ 2223 Market - A wonderful time!

It's not everyday that you get to spend such a great Birthday Week with family and good friends, (pics L-R, Russel and mom, Elise and Mick, Mick and Cosgrove) but this was the best ever. Thanks to the Russel for planning a magical evening,

World Travels - Italy 2007

And incredible trip to Italy has been the highlight for this year (so far).

Rome, Florence, Siena and then an incredible to the Amalfi Coast.

Wrapping up the trip with several days in Ravello.....wonderful!

Our Florence apartment was inbetween the Ponte Vecchio and the Pitti Palace, right in the heart of the city.

An amazing drive from Florence to Ravello, in quite possibly the smallest car we've ever driven in. Here it, our Chevy Matiz.......batteries included.
