LACMA
Aviva saw that there was a potentially cool show up at LACMA, and we hadn’t been to that museum for an eternity, so we decided to leave Iggy and Jett home alone for a few hours and check it out. Their mobile website is iPhone-compliant and asks you to save it as an “app” which […]

Shadow Ranch Park
Today was another gorgeous day in southern California so we decided to take the dogs to Shadow Ranch Park which is just down the street (after running a handful of errands). And of course I took pictures with my iPhone, so take a look, hope you enjoy them!

Mission San Gabriel Archangel and Pasadena
Aviva and I decided to bundle up the pooches and be a tourist – we drove out to Mission San Gabriel Archangel. Here’s the blurb on the Mission from the one page flier you get for the $5 admission fee: Founded in 1771, only two years after the discovery of the Sari Gabriel Valley, San […]

Iggy and Jett playing – 3 pics
Iggy and Jett play together all the time – if one has a toy the other simply must have it! So here are three pics from my real camera (a point-and-shoot Sony DSC-T10 Cyber-Shot) of the two of them struggling over an orange stuffed toy.

Pics from Santa Monica
We decided to hang out in Santa Monica on Monday, so we bundled up Iggy and Jett and drove down. It was a bright sunny day and so we walked the dogs around the park overlooking the Pacific Ocean and then shopped a little and drove home.

Pictures: Toastmasters Leadership Institute and some others
I attended Toastmasters leadership training last Saturday – all club officers try to attend training twice a year; clubs get credit towards their goals by having at least 4 officers training twice in the year. We also had an offsite meeting for work to talk about offshoring; I took a picture of a cool flowering […]

Royce Hall, UCLA
Tiring of the rain and clouds, Aviva and I decided to take Iggy and Jett on a car ride down to the Woodfield Century City Mall – they let dogs into most of the stores and it seemed like a way to get out on my last day off. After buying a new spice rack […]

Some more pictures of Iggy and Jett; my mom asked for some photos on paper so we grabbed the camera and tried to get the dogs to cooperate….

Iggy takes a toy from Jett
Iggy and Jett play together a lot; Jett is smaller and younger so she usually comes out on the short end (as a good friend once told me, dogs aren’t about fairness), and here’s an example – Iggy rushes her, they play tug of war, and Iggy eventually takes the toy.
