Having grown up in a small town in Georgia nowhere near the ocean, I decided to follow a dream. I loaded up my vehicle and drove to Hermosa Beach, California. It was December and I couldn’t believe I could take off my shoes and walk in the sand and water without freezing. I had never been to California or seen the Pacific ocean before that point. You’ve found a wonderful home. Gerald Littleton - December 8, 2011 - 4:07 pm
Beautiful………….we still greatly miss you here in Atlanta…. allen w. burkhardt - December 8, 2011 - 11:55 pm

Dagmar First of all I will never see a name like yours again, truly a one of a kind, and it fits you well. Best Wishes to your falmily for this Chistmas Season Tom Buzz Brazelton - January 4, 2012 - 2:10 pm
Hi Dagmar I travel from Atlanta to San Diego at least once a year and often visit Del Mar and Oceanside beaches. Maybe i’ll see you one day out there with your dogs…. P.S. Tell that news anchor of yours to quit calling you “Dag.” Your name is Dagmar. ![]() Snapped this picture on my way to work last week. 4 construction workers huddled together, towering over the palm tree lined shores of Del Mar as they worked to prepare metal scaffolding for several layers of Christmas Tree ornamentation.

Very nice pic. I have a feeling Christmas in San Diego will be very different than your previous Christmases. Welcome to SD….You’re make it worth watching the weather! Federico Moramarco Federico Moramarco - December 7, 2011 - 8:26 pm
I thought I already made a comment here, but I don’t see it. Welcome to San Diego Dagmar. You make watching the weather–usually a pretty boring time here in SD–a pleasure. ![]() This was the shot from beside the basin for the WWII Carrier Midway facing San Diego Bay during the America’s Cup during my first live hit for NBC 7 on November 17th.

I’d bet anything my dad flew over that ship many times during the war. He was stationed on Tinian island in The Pacific (not too far from Midway) where his B-29 crew flew 35 missions to Japan. Tony Rosas - December 20, 2011 - 10:23 pm
Watching you give the weather induced my perusing through your web-site. Listed are my quick thoughts as a list of things about you: expansive, higher order, multi-talented, popular, seeker of adventure, carefully dangerous, and 30 other things. You intrique me. I am a teacher in National City, 3rd grade. If you are available as a single woman, I’d enjoy walking with you and your dogs on the beach. I am not rich nor the most handsome, but I am funny and a Texas gentleman. Dan - March 29, 2012 - 3:18 pm
In the words of Billy Crystal….”Simply maaaarrrvvveeeellllous!” ![]() It’s heartbreaking for me to even think about this situation, but if there are people strong and compassionate enough to perform the rescue, then the very least I can do is help draw much needed attention to the plight these creatures face.

Is Buster happy/sad or really for a nap ? Michael - March 9, 2012 - 12:31 am
Ok mon I will do it ![]() Tweet I met Cinnamon the Chow and her companion while walking my own four-legged friend at the beach. She was struck by a car last year leaving her partially paralyzed from the hips back. Neither she nor her loving human were willing to surrender the will to, not only survive, but thrive!! There’s a lesson... 21 comments Bart Dinos - August 17, 2011 - 3:42 pm
Most people don’t have the attitude that dog has! Cinnamon Rocks! John - August 17, 2011 - 4:05 pm
What a beautiful dog! And a very courageous one along with her owner…Thanks for sharing D! Michael J. Anzalone - August 17, 2011 - 8:44 pm
I love that you care about these things Dagmar, be well. Don England - August 18, 2011 - 5:18 am
Hey Dagmar, Really miss you on this side of the US… Hope all is going well for you? Write when you can. Crandall Woodson - August 18, 2011 - 9:58 am
We miss your beautiful personality in Atlanta! Hope you are enjoying life and remember you touched so many here. cw Randy - August 19, 2011 - 1:48 am
Dagmar, How are you coming with your job search decision? I think the middle of our lives is one of the most difficult times for us. We know that we cannot recover our youth and the joys that came with it, though we’d like to remember fondly. We do not yet have the ability to appreciate the simple nature of old age – having friends everywhere who are truly are friends ready to help at a moment’s notice because they know that helping a friend is more important than anything they have on their own agenda. So, we are stuck in this time of indifference and lack of certainty. We have the ability, but are lost in direction and purpose. The energy that motivated us before seems gone. We know we are beginning a life change, maybe our last significant change of finding and using our God-given purpose of what we were put on the earth for, and maybe we are a little afraid of not making the right choice. It is a real soul-searching time waiting for the answer to so many questions. You are not alone. Jamie Marshall - August 20, 2011 - 8:30 pm
D It was nice to read about you the other day in the AJC. “Catching up with Dagmar Midcap a year later I continue to wish you nothing but the best. Keep A Smile Randy - August 22, 2011 - 10:51 pm
I watched the video clip “It’s Me or The Dog” Friday night and Saturday. I had no idea. It took real guts to share that with everyone. I commend you and thank you for allowing those of us who care about you to let us in that much. It’s really extroadinary that I still can’t believe it. I understand Dagmar Midcap’s life over the past few years a whole lot better than I did before. That video more than touched my life. My heart now has a greater capacity of understanding and forgiving others and seeing past outward appearance of circumstances. But, at the same time… I have to be honest and say that I am angry with God for allowing these things to happen to people who care. It seems like we are all affected in a hurtful way that causes us to lose faith, hope and love. I will forever be humbled by the loving, yet haunting nature of seeing it. Why do relationships have to be so doggone difficult anyway? Why can’t we just fall in love and everything go smoothly? Randy - August 25, 2011 - 5:50 am
Dagmar, I thought you might get a kick out of my own self analysis as it relates to your world… I’m like an equal mixture of Pogo and Dolly – an irresponsible two-year old who can’t contain himself most of the time combined with a self-depricating-abused-doormat-of-a-kind-hearted-soul. Put that in your Freudian pipe and smoke it! Jim - August 27, 2011 - 1:16 pm
I stumbled across your website (not sure how). I am fairly confident we will never cross paths, but you seem to be an amazing and very stunning woman. Simply wanted to share that with you. All the best to you… Randy - August 27, 2011 - 11:28 pm
Wisdom chooses to do NOW what it will be satisfied with later on. Robert Guyse - August 31, 2011 - 12:11 am
The will to survive and thrive is different for all of us. As with Cinnamon, it has a lot to do with the state of mind and the support and encouragement from others. I suppose the lesson is, “Don’t give up” because there is someone out there that can make your world a better place. Nelson (narleyman63) - September 1, 2011 - 12:24 pm
Animals can provide us humans a lot to learn about overcoming obstacles. I always look forward to seeing my sheltie, Gunner, every evening. Scott MacDonald - September 14, 2011 - 11:15 pm
I had a dream last night and now realize when I meet you. I was walking the beach in Siesta Key, Fl from the public beach to the home on the left set on the jetty. As I returned to the public beach area, I notice a gorgeous red headed woman in a red bathing suit. It was a HOT day, and I thought myself how hard it was for someone so sun sensitive to be on the beach. I returned to my car and walked to the secondary food stand to take my last look at the ocean as I was to drive back to Atlanta, GA. I noticed the woman from the beach returning to the parking lot. VERY ATTRACTIVE! As I left the food stand to head to the parking lot, you came toward the food stand. I said ‘Hello’ and you responded which surprise me, as most people are not friendly. They like to think they are. I was surprised how tall you were and the fact that you looked straight at the person’s eyes. Now, years later I am watching the eleven o’clock news with my father visiting from Fl. I say to him, this woman is really attractive. He thinks I am nuts! Now I understand why you looked familiar. Dreams are amazing things. I swear this happened, I remember your eyes. I know it crazy. I always thought, why didn’t I ask that women to lunch or coffee? If I had only taken a moment, I am sure I would have found you to be a very nice person. I wanted to make a skydive before sunset, so off I went to the DZ. I am sorry for your loss in Atlanta. Boy, did you have it good here! I think I am crazy, well I have jumped from airplanes for 22 years, however you need to find you way in life. Worry is a waste of time! Blue Skies Always! Randy - October 12, 2011 - 11:34 pm
Just out of the blue today, one of your pictures crossed my mind that I saw awhile back… the one of you kneeling on a rock over a babbling brook wearing a country girl hat reaching into the water as though you were fishing for something. As I was thinking of the picture I thought to myself, “How could any man with a heart look at that picture and not be moved?” There are so many positive emotions that stir the soul… humility, strength, joy, love, candor, easy-going, positive, fearless, kindred, spirit, steadfast, determined… and on and on… Matthew - October 25, 2011 - 1:38 pm
Heard the news last night…Welcome to the TV world of Sunny San Diego!! I’m personlly glad that your arrival ends the reign of Wx simulcasts sent to us from our L.A. neighbors. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t any thing personal with fritz or his staff, but the local take on all our news is better than having them send it down in Standard Definition from L.A.! Nelson - October 27, 2011 - 5:31 pm
Glad to see you are going to work in San Diego. Good luck and look forward to your post. Randy - November 4, 2011 - 1:24 am
Yea! Dagmar is working again! I know that comes as a mixed blessing. I’m sure it will feel good to be involved in a new adventure, meeting new people, and living in one of the best climates in the country (so I’ve heard). I can see by the stress in your face that it will be a challenge too. You can do it! I have faith. So, everybody raise a glass to honor Dagmar in a toast to her new and exciting life. I bet she’ll make another 10 million people smile! Allen & Teresa Burkhardt - November 29, 2011 - 11:03 am
