well when the sun came up today I found out just how bad it was here. My 6 ft tall runs have 5 ft of snow in them. From front to back FILLED. the kennel part of the yard is about 4ft of snow. The deep freeze is coming in and by sundown it is dropping to -9 The last time this happened I was really into showing and breeding I had 19 dogs in the house for 23 days. This year I have 7 seniors in till the spring thaw. My husband will eventually get the tractor over here (when it stops blowing) and scoop out what he can in the yard. But we are past the point of shoveling out the runs. and these are supposed to be my GOLDEN YEARS Funniest thing was convincing the spoiled one Truman he really needed to go out and potty before bed last night sally On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 11:04 AM, Stormy Hope <Stormy435@xxxxxxx> wrote: > My daughter called... -20 something last night in Longmont,CO.
