It would have been a perfect two hours if it weren't for the little burrs all over the paths that got stuck all over Westley. I must have pulled at least 50 out of his fur on the car ride home!

Jack London State Park
This past Sunday my boyfriend, Westley (the pup!), and I scooted out of San Francisco and drove up to the Jack London State Park in Sonoma for a much needed warmer weather afternoon. There were errands to do in the city in the morning, and terrible traffic trying to get to/over the Golden Gate Bridge so we got there with only 2 hours to spare before the park closed. I took photos with my lomo but I haven't been having much luck with it lately. Two rolls wasted on dead batteries (including photos from this day) and then I forgot to change the ISO setting when I put a new roll of film in on Sunday - so I can't imagine any of those photos are going to come out well - but, we did take some digital photos!

Your pup is gorgeous, and he has the sweetest face. I love your dresses, and certainly this one. The oaks are the perfect scenery for it.
