Sally the equine enthusiast

Sally came to the barn in Tennessee Valley today ~ she helped care for the horse and then tacked up for a ride with the T.V. Mounted Patrol.

The barn is part of the National Park Service in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area

English vs. Western is the preferred saddle for Sally

Red is the best horse, so calm and patient

Sally the first week of November


Sally came to San Francisco on October 28th for a month-long vacation. She was sent by her "mom" Olivia in Wisconsin and her grandmother Kari. She has already managed to find quite a few adventures and it's not even been two weeks yet. Here's the update. {Sally is based on the story of Flat Stanley if you'd like to know more.}

Sally helps the interior architect specify finishes for a client

It's all so overwhelming, Sally needed a "Time-Out" as she had a bit of a meltdown


Fun with finishes

SketchUp is a fun free program and the results are fantastic

TransAmerica Building is so cool and unusual
