Go Chiefs Go!

Happy Super Bowl Sunday everyone! A cloudy day for us and on the mild side. So far, I must say it's been an easy Winter. We've had some cold days but overall, it's been quite nice. We have just enough snow to keep the paws clean. Given the little amount of snow, we've been having our daily walks at the park in Pointe-Claire, by the waterfront. The dogs and us don't sink when walking, it's perfect. The best part is our pooches don't have to wear their boots. They don't mind them but prefer walking bare paws. Only two months left of Winter....it will be Spring before we know it!

This past week was good and quiet. We had a good stretch of sunshine which made the days feel really long, in a good way. We have a rabbit that seems to come by during the day, leaving a little trail of goodies on the snow...we haven't seen it but we know it comes through our backyard throughout the day. Cooper and Spicy get to sniff its trail each time they go out. On Friday morning, we also came face to face, through our wrought iron fence, with a racoon.  Needless to say Coop and Spicy barked up a storm and the racoon didn't move. It seemed dazed and sick. I took the dogs in right away and saw the racoon leave from the kitchen window. We haven't seen him since but we're on the lookout each time we go out.

Cooper and I had a good time at our Fun Obedience class on Tuesday. Sharon is replacing Wanda, who is recovering from knee replacement surgery. It looks like all went well with the surgery. It can only get better from this point on. Sharon is a very good instructor and we enjoyed the class with her.

So, here we are, another Super Bowl Sunday. This year, we will be cheering for the Chiefs....a great team with great players...we will be cheering specifically for #76, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, a medical doctor graduate from McGill University, currently the only active MD player in the NFL. A great story and "un gars de chez nous" as we say in Quebec! We wish him well in today's game. 

That's my blog for today. Have a great week everyone!

Nice to have a seat while on our daily walk...Spicy and
Cooper love to sit and take in the sun with Russell.

Lake St. Louis is icing up but not as quickly this Winter.

break before getting back to the action.

Spicy can be a mooch...here she is
