Gratituous dog-blogging: Crescent City edition
By Gina Spadafori
April 12, 2008
The dogs are eating their dinner, and then I’m going to have a bite with organizer Nadine Long before the event tonight. She and her husband, Del Norte Library Director Russell Long, found us the most perfect place to stay, a simple, clean quiet older hotel within view and a short walk of the ocean. The breeze is coming off the ocean, and I can hear the harbor sounds and sea gulls. We’ve caught a perfect afternoon for the weather.
So close to the water, Heather has forgotten she’s 11-plus and is demanding some beach time. That’ll be tomorrow. Tonight she has to charm people. She’s more than capable, I know, but in case she need encouragement, I’m bringing dog cookies.

Just pulled in. The event in Arcata was great fun, too, but that’s a hecka long drive home, pretty scenery or no!
I’ll have more in the morning. Was so glad to see so many people turn up. The dogs and I sure had fun, but it’s GOOD to be home.
