Fun and games as he barged through the house with it on, and once the others realised it was nothing to be terrorised by - only Nome in a bonnet, then life settled back down. Eating treats with it on, became a "free for all" if Nome dropped any pieces.

Amazing how many can clamber underneath in such…

Hey wasn't life great!

Death is the only thing sure in life but you never get used to it. She’s still on the floor now, as if in a deep sleep: Daly O’Conloch. A day after last Dutch winters day, her (grand)children racing horizons, she walking knees her eyes telling I still want to live but can’t anymore. You know what, I’ll post a picture of Summer 1994 - your puppyhood with our youngest daughter Iris. Because you never get used to death. Hey wasn’t life… Continue

Hunting In Falling Snow

Even though I love falling snow, I cannot participate in the pursuit during a storm. Simply because, even though dog hauling is considered when purchasing vehicles, I've not taken into account traction to get to favored hunting grounds. I'll have to give more thought next time.
