Mother Nature delighted us Friday by fooling the weather forecasters who had predicted we were only on the fringe of the storm coming thru Fri. It was predicted only an inch or two.
It snowed ALL day Friday, and thru the night.
We woke up to 8 inches of fresh snow, at least. Off trail, when you step off your sled it can easily be 18 inches of snow. We have had a foot of snow in the woods for awhile now. Groomers were out last night.
We are busy and that’s just how we like it in the wintertime. The front yard is filled with trucks and trailers. The backside has sleds lined up. Snow is everywhere…..
I read a disturbing news story today. Please don’t say anything to Sparky or any other dog you love.
In Canada a person applied for disability because of the post traumatic stress he had after having to slaughter sled dogs!!!! .. not in any humane effort but for their own economic needs. I can certainly understand how he might be haunted by the actions he undertook for his employer. I would hope the people who gave those orders would be haunted also. I do not understand slaughter of any living creatures. Man can be so cruel and mean spirited.
