    Snow zoomies!

    I know many of you are sweltering under record high heat waves this week, but here in Oregon we saw our first snow of the season in the mountains. And I think we deserve it after the wildfire season we've had...

    Anyways, we took Thor up the hill today to play in the snow. The smoke and heat has been so terrible that he hasn't gotten out for the past month and he's getting a bit soft (well, we both are...). I thought a good day on the snow would help clear out the accumulated energy and cabin fever. Thor has always been a joyful dog, but on snow it's cranked up to 11. I took this video after 3 miles of hiking through a foot of snow, and this was just about his 20th zoomie attack. It was great to let him run out some of that energy. I love how happy we all were to get out in some fresh cool air.

    Oh, that looks like fun. Yeah...nice respite for us overheated ones. (I anticipate a break in another day or two, though...but no snow.)

    Made me smile big time. Snow zoomies are great when they run then lay down and roll in the snow!!

    I sure hope we get some snow this year. Last few winters have been so lame. Hemi loves the snow as well.
