Cull Canyon Trail Challenge 2018 -the dog's blog

This my husband and my second day trying the East Bay Regional Park District Trails Challenge. Today we tried the Cull Canyon Trail: Cull Canyon Regional Recreation Area Chabot to Garin Regional Trail/Cull Canyon Road/Heyer Road/Service Road/ Lake View Trail/Columbia Drive Length: 2.25-mile loop Elevation: 350 feet Location: Castro Valley GPS: 37.710479, -122.055430 We picked this trail because we could bring the dog with us, and it is described as shaded trails, shallow creek crossings, ridge-top breezes.

So far so good....

His eyes were like the Caribbean Sea.

Last night I was on my way to the parking lot. I had just finished a meeting at Morton’s steakhouse in the “City”. As normal, the homeless were scattered throughout the streets. Some walked up to me with their cups. The others were in wheelchairs, standing against a wall, hidden in a corner, or sitting on the sidewalk. Their existence is eminent. There used to be stronger laws for loitering. What do you do when the homeless have nowhere to go? They have only had cardboards and salvaged blankets. As I was passing some of the eateries, I was thinking how the owners overprice their food. A young man asked if I could help him get something to eat. My first instinct, was to say, “I’m sorry, I can’t.” I’ve given money many times, given my leftover food but of late, I donate to the professionals who know how to help the people. He simply said, “Ok, I understand.” I saw he ...
