MILL VALLEY, CALIFORNIA I SALUTE YOU!





Ok, I'm here to tell you, these people in Marin County, they are enlightened. They love their dogs and have really special places for them to romp and play! We found this place in Mill Valley where there is a dog park and a trail that goes all the way to Sausalito.

I should tell you about these cool books that the counties along 101 publish. They are called "101 Things To Do" and they seem to have them for most counties along the route. Anyway, we found the trail in that book. It starts at Bay Front Park and goes along Richardson Bay.

It was drizzling most of the tme and the clouds were so low they looked more like fog. But, what a great walk we had. There were wild birds everywhere. We saw snowy egrets, great blue heron, pin tail ducks, mallards, gulls, coots and a ton of birds we couldn't identify.

It's amazing how man and wildlife have adapted to each other and live in relative harmony. Unfortunately, mom wasn't carrying her long lense and most all the shots she tried had unattractive background. I've got a couple here to show you and the mailbox which was where people kinda recycle plactic bags for poopie pick up. I tell you, these people have got it together!
