Rainy Days

Nora's Photo she took to post on Instagram

We had a little winter - mostly while we were out east for Thanksgiving, but lately it has just been rain and wind.  Bleak outside.  Muddy, brown, dead and very very wet.  After school I help Nora with her paper route and in no time at all it's already dark.

Over the weekend we had to think of things to do inside.  Stuey and I started to do puzzles.  Nora went outside and took pictures.  She extracted a promise from me that if she took a really good picture I'd post it on Instagram.   That's her photo above, and it made Instagram.  We also did a Sunday drive out to Bell's Flats and Java Flats for lunch.  Killing time.

This time of year I hate taking the dogs for walks in the park because they get so muddy and then track up the house.  So I've been continuing to ski.  The doggies stay clean on the mountain and then dry out a bit on the car ride home.  But today the doggies will get a day off - I think I am going to go rafting.  Patrick
