Dragonfly Ranch

As seen from the BART platform, looking over the Amtrak platform. Our house is the last in the yellow row to the right (north) of the garage.

Yesterday was a big (and long!) day.

First, we went to Davis for Kai’s third chemotherapy treatment. Kai, Chester, and I left at 10:00 a.m. after our visit to Point Isabel, and we got home at 4:30. Kai was a trooper, as always. Chester was amazingly good during the three and a half hours we had to wait. We walked a mile and a half to the other side of the Davis campus. I had lunch on the patio of a restaurant while Chester lay quietly at my side, then we walked back. He paid no attention to all the bicycles, but he couldn’t resist going after the squirrels.

That evening, tired as we were, Kai and I went to the Berkeley East Bay Humane Society so he could take his Canine Good Citizen test. Of course, he passed with flying colors. We don’t call him the Stepford dog for nothing. (Though I had taken him to three training sessions to get ready.)

My friend Cindy took this picture of Ari, Kai, and Chester at Pt. Isabel. If it were not for “Lamb Cuts” treats, I could never demand this kind of attention from any one!

Yum! breakfast in Casper

The noble beast at rest

Chester apparently doesn’t think my practicing is nearly as important as playing with him.
