I never would have thought in a million years that just 2 days after I was riding in shorts and short sleeves there would be snow on the ground. And not just a mere dusting, but a full-blown blanket of snow. Yes, on Monday it was in the 70’s and I was lapping it up, taking full advantage of one of the last days my bare legs would see the sun in the coming months. And, then today, Wednesday, I woke up to blinding whiteness. Although it was expected, it was still unwelcome, by me at least. Kohi and Haka LOVED IT! At first they were a bit apprehensive about this powdery stuff on the ground covering all their pee and poop spots, but once they stepped foot in it they were hooked! They played and played and played and then played some more. They had a good run at the dog park playing with other dogs, fetching the ball, making snow balls out of the tennis ball, jumping into the frozen pond (which gave Kohi, and me, quite a scare when she was surrounded by chunks of ice) and on and on and on. Now we have two exhausted dogs at home - it’s sort of nice having a little peace and quiet for a change.

Can’t wait to eat some turkey tomorrow!! It’s been 3 or 4 years or even more since Ben and I have been in the US for Thanksgiving and I don’t plan on holding back - gobble, gobble!!

Happy Thanksgiving, ya’ll!!
