WASHOUT

No family walk today.

Heavy rain.

Now tapering but the wind is picking up.

We are getting our asses kicked by a storm centered in Mexico. This is only the northern fringe.

So we made do.

There was a break early this morning so Franklin and I went out in the wet dark and played with a ball.

Then he and I tried a very wet walk about 7AM.

No takers.

We got a hundred feet from the house and he wanted to go back in.

So did I.

I had a short errand at the store and so we all went in the Jeep for a longer spin to see the snow which is down to about 3000 feet. Very nice.

Maybe we will have a white christmas. Up there, I mean.

I can't see the very top. It has been a few years since we had a good snow pack but this is a promising start.

For now, we are canceling the walking.

A look ahead says that it will clear today and then be very cold. Even into the freezing zone.

That means no biking for me. Just dog walks.

The fall on the ice is too fresh in my memory to try again.
