While Indy and I always take our daily pre-dawn and post-sunset constitutionals, we sometimes don't take a long walk during the winter. Today the temp was almost up to zero, the winds were calm, not more than a foot of snow, and the sun was shining - as good as it's going to get. We took off for a walk. On the other side of Gorgeous Gorge I heard a chainsaw. Russell must be getting firewood. Yep, he had two dead trees pretty much cut up by the time Indy and I got there. His dog Chinook usually accompanies him but he said it was too cold for Chinook to be out. I looked over at Indy. She's got as much fur as a bear right now - keep the snow out of her paws and she's OK. I loaded enough firewood to feel I'd been helpful and then backtracked along the tractor trail to where it crossed a path back home. Not a long walk but exhilarating.
