Enjoy A Simple Moment: Sonoma County Photo Of The Week

ROHNERT PARK, CA – Before the fires, terror, loss and heartache of recent days, there was a thirsty kitty in search of a cool drink of water.

On Sept. 30, Patch reader Gean Wik snapped a photo of "Ralf" sipping from a bird bath in Rohnert Park.

Sometimes it's important to stop and truly appreciate the simple moments in time.

Thanks, for sharing, Gean!
