Where Did The Yard Go?

BrownStone Cascade Mt. Klah,(Liaka) is in training to be a service therapy dog. Here is link to a video of her class's stress assessment. (Some day I'll figure out how to post a video in the blog).

Yesterday I finally tired of playing on the internet and went outside to start the year's weeding chores. I can't believe it is January. The weeds certainly don't know it. They are flourishing in the warm, damp weather. One hard freeze and Ma Nature would do much of the weeding for me but the weather predictions are for continued warmer and dryer weather. After filling my 4'x8'x4' trailer to the brim and getting soaked by the enveloping cloud, I dried by the fire and grabbed my camera.

Sweet Cedar. Last weekend we had visitors who wanted to meet Chinooks. Like everyone else they too called Cedar "such a sweet girl".
 Team Nookies without snow to much on.
Today is another day in the clouds. If possible, even thicker than yesterday.
It is a good morning to do - ugh - housework and hang around inside.
