Fusion 45 On Snow And Dogs
LET IT POWDER, LET IT POWDER, LET IT POWDER
Our snowbelt inhabiting friend, Whiteray over at Echoes In The Wind will find this one amusing: they canceled school today in the greater Portland area because of snow. All TWO INCHES of it!
The kids, of course, are ecstatic, bundled up in snow pants and hats and mittens, sliding down the driveway (which actually is pretty steep and slippery). They might luck out tomorrow and miss their last day before winter vacation: the forecast says rain and snow which, around here, really is cause for closing the roads.
OLD BLUE
I wasn’t familiar with Tom Russell’s music until recently. Been listening all day to his record called Indians Cowboys Horses Dogs.
I’m a dog lover with an almost 16-year old Newfoundland mix who defies the odds every morning by simply waking up. (Some would I do the same.) Then, as we kiss and cuddle him and welcome him to another day, he looks at us like we’re crazy. (That’s him, Roofussonius Labradorus, above.)
This one choked me up right from the first note.
Well here in London, England they often close school for less than 1/2 inch of snow!
Couldn’t resist commenting on this I’ve been a daily visitor since 6 November and like your blog but haven’t been moved to comment yet. I think I followed a link from someone, probably Siblingshot but it might have been Art Decade and liked what I saw and hung around in the background until now
Peewit
Doesn’t surprise me (I did chuckle). When I lived in Mid-Missouri, two inches shut most everything down. When that happened, I’d stay home, too, but not because of the snow. I stayed in because none of the Missousians knew how to drive in snow and were most dangerous to drive amongst.
