Again, I love snow. I am in full glory when we get 12+ inches. Over the weekend we got big snow on Saturday and then a couple more inches on Sunday. Good times.
Here is Rummy, enjoy the fresh snow Saturday morning:
I thought that S should wait to dig us out until after the snow stopped, [...]

A few of those thoughts focused on how our yard has become Mecca to all the loose dogs in the neighborhood. One of those regular visitors is Colonel Mustard, a little Scotty dog who lives across [...]

This is Rumsfeld, my Secretary of Defense. This is the face you will meet if you break into my home.
However, if you are not an intruder, you can just call her Rummy.

The best thing about summer and warm weather is that the dogs can be bathed outside with the garden hose. In the winter they have to be bathed in our tub and, well, Rummy fights it like you wouldn’t believe. It can take two hours to bathe her indoors, with one hour devoted to getting [...]
