In the Shumway Fountain

Out for a Sunday morning walk with Lily, we came across the Shumway Fountain in front of the Green Library at Stanford.

The fountain, shutdown most of the summer, was back in operation – with a bike suitably planted right in the middle!

Here’s another view with the Library and Hoover Tower in the background.

Cruisin’ Stanford

Lily and I went walking at Stanford this morning – following roughly the same down and back course as last Saturday and Sunday mornings.

Driving home afterwards, we came upon our good friend Chris Gulker as he was finishing the first half of his walk – on his way to carving another 5 minutes off of his best 2 mile time. Congratulations Chris!

More about Lily

So, who’s Lily?

I’ve been writing about taking walks with Lily – she’s our almost 5 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel – otherwise known as “The Shadow”!

Lily is short for Tigerlily – her full name – given to her by her breeder because of her “Mohawk” cowlick right up top. She’s not a show dog because of that cowlick – but she’s very special to us because of it! She was far and away the most curious of her litter – making herself right at home with us.

Cavaliers in general are very human-centric dogs – and Lily’s got a lot of that in her DNA! She’s cuddly and cute and wants to stay with us everywhere we go. I do mean everywhere!

And, she loves to go for a walk – especially with Chris! She’s one special girl!
