A snowy heaven!


Well... the snowstorm only dropped about six inches total. I was made even happier by the fact that all snow removal was done by someone else! YAY!

It really is gorgeous with the new fallen snow. The trees bowing to the sky's delivery... It got very sunny late yesterday and today. Even though temperatures are in the single digits and the overnights are to be in the minus category, the sun has slowly warmed away the snow and many boughs are once again bare.

The Happy Dog is doing well. Other than being insane, of course.

He likes it when I use the 'chuck-it' to send the ball flying. It took me a long time to get even so-so throws. (Not to mention a few doggie-dirty-looks) Then I discovered the best way for me to use it. I hold it like a baseball bat!

I swing like Babe Ruth, but pull up short. That ball flies! Not too bad for a girl that throws like one! It goes so far down the driveway the blond thing has to actually chase it! After five or six throws, he's done and starts to bury and then dig up his own ball.

I'm serious! He drops the ball in the snow, pushes it down with his nose and/or feet... then starts digging... He's insane! It's kind of like having the ability to hide your own Easter eggs and forget where you put them! But he goes at it like he hasn't seen that ball since last fall. At the very least, Jax is and always will be one of my favorite Happy Dogs!
