Lori Mathis in the Run To Feed The Hungry Green Shirt

We got this great photo of Lori Mathis in the "green shirt" after she returned from the 17th Annual Run To Feed the Hungry on Thanksgiving Day. Greenlight Apparel produced the race shirts this year and - although they are not actually green - they are 100% recycled polyester!

Dog Gone Alley and controversial art in Woodland

We took a walk down Dog Gone Alley in Woodland last week after having lunch in the area. The Woodland City Council renamed the alley in 2005 in the hope the whimsical name would help attract tourists and add to the flavor of the downtown historic district. Below: a controversial mural on the side of the building facing the alley was painted by artist Maceo Montoya.
