Our last hike of the season!
When is that pesky Autumnal equinox again? Summer is winding down, but it isn't over yet, right? I hate to see Summer end, but I guess I gotta let go - this was our last hike of the season which means it's the end of Summer fun for us and the beginning of the busy and hectic Holiday Season, drat! You wouldn't think anyone would be thinking about the holidays in September, but when you run a business September means, well, sing it with me - sleigh bells ring, are you listening, in the lane, snow is glistening ...
We spent the day hiking at Las Trampas Regional Wilderness just east of Oakland with the incredibly jolly New Connections crew! These are the people who sell our products to organic food stores such as the Berkeley Bowl, Rainbow, Whole Foods etc ... throughout Northern California - what a fun group! We had a beautiful Indian Summer day, a little hot and the plants are mostly dried up and done for the year, but it was still very pretty out. Thanks New Connections for the great day, and we'll do it again next year in the Summer, maybe we'll hit the redwoods next time!
Kalu (sp?) the dog romping in the grass - Kalu looked like a dolphin bobbing in and out of the grass, she ran all day long, tongue hanging out, huff huff huff, tired but couldn't get enought of it - dogs know how to have fun.
