Well, we got another nice storm the other day… 8-10″ new snow.
There is at least one person here who is happy with this: Nash
Nash has now started playing with Sierra the same way he plays with Maisey the puppy… and she puts up with it.
He jumps on her and chews on her head and she does the same back to him. It’s very amusing.
Nash and Sierra playing with the chicken Nash got for xmas, while Merlin looks on in disgust.
Still not sure if I am going to go do anything for New Years tonight. I could go to a party or wander out bar hopping or something,
or just stick to my usual tendencies and stay home.
So late last week was the great denver blizzard. I guess we ended up getting about 2.5ft or so here.
Of course as long as net and power are working I was able to work, so it wasn’t much different than most days.
I did have to do a bunch of shoveling to get it so I could pull out of the garage, but otherwise the snow was pretty fun.
Nash had a blast. He loves the snow. Running, jumping, playing, diving into, laying in, rolling in it.
This snow stuff is wonderfull!
You can even burry your head in it.

Nash takes a cool down break.
Nash finds a peice of ice to play with.
On a walk, the shoveled out sidewalk is narrow in places… no problem for Nash, he prefers to jump through the snow.
Yesterday a number of folks and hounds came by to visit. Including Nash’es favorite dog in the universe: Maisey the greyhound puppy. They played and played and played for about 2.5 hours non stop. Nash sure slept well that night.
Today I opened some squeeky toys for the dogs… they had a blast playing around with them.
The chicken was a big hit.
Later today I need to do some baking and then head up to a potluck in boulder.
I could bring a dog or two with me, but it’s hard to decide which ones I should take… I might just let them all stay home and relax.
Here’s the lovely little Sierra foster dog…
She probably needs a home with other dogs around. She’s a bit curious about cats, but nothing that can’t be corrected.
Aside from some cat interest she has been a very easygoing, mellow foster.
Sierra and Nash in their crates…man, having 2 big crates is such a pain.

I forgot I took this movie a while back, but remembered when I got things off the camera today.
The movie doesn’t do justice to it, it was very cool.
Here’s some pictures from the last few weeks…
Nash is now taller than Merlin.
Snow is for playing in. Even when you are on a walk.
Pretty hounds all in a row.
Nash has gotten very fond of playing fetch with an oversized ball that I have had for a long time.
He will run and get it and bring it back for another throw. Something none of the other hounds I have seen will do.
It’s a excellent way to tire him out.
Thats all for now… should have some pictures of the lovely Sierra up later.
new foster
Haven’t posted any updates in a while… but mostly there hasn’t been much to report. ![]()
Working, relaxing at home and being my normal Hermit self.
Today I did get a new foster greyhound however. So far she’s very sweet. Her name is Sierra. She’s a red fawn. Apparently she was named by the adoption coordinator in our group, since the guy who had her since she was 2 months old never bothered to name her. Will see how she does with the kitty test.
I’ll try and post some pictures later this weekend… I’m way behind on pictures. Will try and unload the ones on the camera later tonight and do a photo post.
