Autumn arrived suddenly about a month ago, shifting gears to crisp sunny days and ever colder nights. Last week we had our first deep frost and that seemed to be the cue for all the brilliantly bedecked trees to give up the fight and drop their drawers. I walked out the front door to find a carpet of leaves burying the driveway and front yard, not to mention Carl's car. The dogs and I spent some quality time raking.
With the cooler weather has come snow in them thar hills, and we decided there's no time like the present to introduce Luna to that wonderful white stuff. Seeing as her front paws are currently twice the size of her back ones, she's perfectly equipped. Bubba showed her the way and she had no reservations about jumping right in.
Bubba strikes a pose with Mt. Shasta in the background.
Luna taking flight in pursuit of snow balls. I think she's part panther.
On the prowl...at 3 months of age she weighs in at 14 lbs 2 oz. They grow up so fast!
Carl chucking snow balls for Bubba, who seems to be doing his best "Jaws" impression.
Luna getting in on the fun.
With this crew there was no way I'd emerge unscathed. Giving Luna some lovin'.
Banzai!
Back at home, my wonderful mother sent along a gift for Carl - his very own man-apron, or "mapron", as he prefers to call it. One has to look good while grilling, after all.
