    • I was so happy to see Snoopy, Linda. The first time we visited we got snowed in at Sedona and couldn’t leave the campground. The staff kept pointing toward the rocks telling me it was Snoopy. Because we were in the campground at a lower angle, I never saw anything that resembled my idea of Snoopy. 3 years later, walking the main street above the campground, there he was!
      I used to direct our aquatics program and our late autumn event was Doggy Dip day, where people could bring their dogs swimming in one of our pools on the last day. It was such a fun event and nothing like it in the western US at the time. Good memories!

      • How lucky you were to see Snoopy this time Terri! Just the right angle did it. They have started doing a Doggy Dip Day in our Metroparks too, but they don’t have a clever name like that for it.

      • Oh that’s nice to hear about the dog swim, Linda. We started ours in 2002, not long after our wheelchair access entry pool/park was built. The City of Sacramento was one of the first on the west coast to offer it. Our public health department was on good terms with us because we operated 15 public pools and knew what we were doing. We called it Doggy Dip Day and some people thought it was free bathing for dogs 🤣. Fun stuff. But I’m glaf I’m retired!

      • Our pools close after Labor Day, so it is annual tradition now for the Metroparks (except mine … my Metropark has something wrong with the granite or whatever stone surface the pool is made of and it’s been closed since they returned, albeit briefly, after COVID closed them down).
