Yesterday my dear friend and author/photographer, Barbara Tricarico, teamed up with FOTAS (Friends of Animals which supports the local animal shelter) for a book signing at the newly revamped and beautiful BayBerry Inn, a B&B here in Ashland Oregon. The BayBerry Inn is in central Ashland so drop by to see this beautiful B&B and visit with Francesca, Josh and Rocky the dog.  (www.bayberryinn.com)

Barbara signed copies of her book, Ashland, Oregon (www.barbaratricarico.com) for guests and portions of the sales went to FOTAS.   Serving wine was a wonderful wedding photographer and wine server, Ellen Ahearn, and dropping in for a visit was another great, local photographer, Mary Landberg, who is both a hospice provider and author as well.  (Her new photography book focuses on the hands of people in hospice (http://www.hospiceportraits.com)

Of course, the entire event was taken over by Francesca & Josh (owners of BayBerry Inn) dog, Rocky, who loves people and loves to howl in tune.
