Look at these dogs. After Nia and stretch class once a month we go out for coffee at Peets near the community center. This guy walked up with four German Shepherds. And he just left them as he went inside. It was a sight to see. Four dogs just sitting there calmly. When he came out some of us walked over and asked if we could pet them and I snapped a couple of pictures. I love well-behaved dogs. These girls were awesome.
Last Friday was a bird this week I have dogs for the Friday Photo.
What do you think? Aren’t they gorgeous?

In California we have to get our cars “smogged” or “smog tested”. That is what we call it. There are hundreds of places all over in my area and they all say “Smog Check”/”Smog Test”. Other states might know it as emissions testing. We just call it smog. Well for some odd reason . . . we can all guess why . . . there are times when you might have to get your car tested at a “SPECIAL” smog place. They call it a STAR station. So the state decides that you have to go to a STAR station to get tested instead of “regular” testing place. Thankfully they are just as convenient as regular ones, but I have a guy. I go to him every time I need to get my car smogged. And every year he says, “Your engine is so clean.” And I am on my way in less than 20 minutes. But this year I had to go to a STAR place. They were super nice and just as efficient. And they had a bird. I think his name was Robbie. He was a beautiful parrot. He was so funny. He was showing off when I was taking his picture.
So today’s Friday Photo is the San Jose Star Smog Check Station’s parrot Robbie.

Sometimes I take pictures of things that I am going to get rid of. I don’t even think this was my card. I think it might have been given to my dad when my mom died. I don’t even remember. But I thought it was really pretty. I don’t think you can tell from the picture how pretty it was but . . . I am posting it anyway. One of those things that is pretty so you just snap a photo of it.
A pretty card for today’s Friday Photo.

My friend bought me this because she knows I love my cats. It was a super cute calendar. As you can see it was for 2016, so I enjoyed it while it lasted. I kept it on my desk for a long time then I finally needed the room and had to get rid of it. But I was so happy to run across this picture. So cute!
A cat calendar is taking up real estate for this week’s Friday Photo.

Ha! One of my yoga students gave me this for Christmas! Cute, huh? A little frog in the lotus pose. I love it. What about you? I thought it was a good Friday Photo share. What do you think of this green guy?

I teach at several different places. I teach yoga at two different community centers and I teach Nia at one community center and two different YMCAs. This is what I consider the “backyard” of one of the YMCAs. It is so pretty with the different color trees. One day while I was waiting to teach class I noticed how gorgeous it was outside and I snapped a few pictures. When I am looking through my pictures I always see this and want to post it. I think I posted it . . . or one like it . . . on Facebook when I first took it. But I thought I would post it here as a Friday Photo.

Sometimes there is just a pretty flower that catches your eye. I was talking with my students after yoga class one day and I noticed this in the landscaping at the community center. My students were laughing at me because they knew the names of all the flowers and plants and I had no idea. I thought this one was pretty.
To me, it is a flower for today’s Friday Photo. Do you know what it is?

You might think this is one of the stupidest things you have ever seen. In fact, you might not even know what you are seeing. (Sigh). Well, I was planning on posting it on the anniversary of my cat’s death, but I was pre-occupied as I often am at this time. I am pre-occupied with death, but that of my father’s and trying to handle that stuff. Our cat died June 25, 2014. It has been three years, but just like with love ones that you are close to you still miss them not matter how long it has been. This picture here is a picture of her paw print. The last one she made in the litter.
Dumb. I know. You can’t even really tell what it is. But I know. I know that I didn’t swish it away right away. She was such a great girl. Here is a picture of her paw print.
Spot’s paw print for this Friday Photo.

This is from a long time ago. We kept having orioles on the hummingbird feeder. They used to pick the yellow flowers off the hummingbird feeder. So we bought them an oriole feeder. But they like the hummingbird ones better. The oriole feeder is really difficult to clean. Could be why they like the hummingbird feeders better. They probably taste better because they get cleaned better. The hummingbird feeders can be taken entirely apart. So I am able to make sure I get it ALL cleaned. Since the orioles pick the flowers off the hummingbird feeders so they can get to the sugar water, we just leave one or two off now.
Here you can see a hummingbird looking at the invader. Can you see him? Ya kind have to look closely.
Hummingbird and oriole for the Friday Photo.

There was a period of time that there was a family of blue jays that would nest in the our neighbor’s trees. They would come once a year and have babies. I think they did that for about three years. I think I have mentioned it before on my blog. I enjoyed watching the babies grow. They are so funny. They are just like all babies in that they go through a learning period. The go through an awkward period. Those two periods often coinciding! Then they get their wings (pun intended) and they fly. I miss watching the babies birds grow. Our neighbor severely trimmed the trees one year and the birds never came back to nest. I came across this photo and I wanted to post it for a Friday Photo.
Look at him. He is so fuzzy!
