Lost power, snowblower broke, but in the end, it is still pretty.

the dailypic 3047 yr9 125 Snow Battle
A simple battle, that movie ‘The Dog Who Stopped the War’ popped in my head the other day. Not even sure why, have not seen it in decades. It was a favorite when I was a kid, one of the cable channels played it on a loop in the winter. Incredibly slow and depressing, anyone remember it? Poor dog. Stupid kids.

the dailypic 3021 yr9 099 Beach Day
Barbara, Josie, a couple cameras and I took a beach day. Negative 2° when we left the house this morning, we headed to Scusset Beach. No traffic, easy parking and the feel of Iceland. Tucked in the corner of the beach, next to the jetty, is a pocket of frozen ocean. Ice, foam, snow, and birds all making a beautiful scene. After that we headed to the Bourne Bridge and watched sheets of ice navigate the canal.

Unless you have a “Winter” Dog you might not know how hard it is to get them to come inside when it is cold and snowy out. Josie was born for the snow, ice, cold. The second the temperature drops, she is beaming, hides in the yard – as well as a 100lb dog can in hopes that we will not see her and make her come inside. Tomorrow’s storm will mean, she sits at the window and whines until some one lets her out… then she runs back to the door in hope you too will go out and play with her. One of my favorite memes (what a stupid word) is the “reminder” about not letting your dogs stay out in the cold, then underneath is a picture of a Berner that says “Bitch, please”. Snow is her element. If only I could get her to shovel while she was out there. There is not an inch of my back yard that will not have a happy paw prints on it by the end of the day tomorrow.

I once was told that a holiday was “made up”, I can’t recall which one they were referring to… my response was, they are all made up. The calendar is made up… there are no “natural holidays” that predate us. Anyway, it was not well received. I am sure they were aggravated with me since they were trying to make a different point, but today would be one of their made up days… National Puppy Day. How rude of me, I should had started with, Happy Puppy Day to you and yours! Sorry about that. We like Puppy Day. We like puppies. Last year the dailypic on puppy day was a stuffed Bernese Mountain Dog. I offered no explanation, but that was the day we let the kids in on the secret, we had a new puppy coming in about a month. It was a big deal, especially since it was very hard on the family when we lost Parker the previous year. A year later and Josie is a year old and a huge part of the family. We all vote, she deserves a day, made up or not. So again, Happy Puppy Day.
