The snow is piled up in mounds that are as high as 7ft in between the houses and driveways and on the front and back lawns, and the weather today is warm!! (Okay maybe not 'warm' but only a few degrees less than 0°...).
With nothing pressing to do over the next couple of days, we decided to go on a short family walk - the two of us and Dex our pup.
Decker loves to catch snowballs and run around in the snow, so we made it to the big open space behind our place to have some fun. Decker donned his flannel vest and his 20ft leash so we could just have a bunch of fun in the snow. Even Ryan and I both wound up covered head to toe and lying in it.
Of course, trying to trudge in snow coming up above the knees is tiring! Decker was fully leaping to try and make it through all of it, and we are all absolutely pooped. Of course I wanted a walk, and I wanted to push myself because I want to build up strength, but holy man am I ever going to be sore tomorrow! I also might need a nap today.
The walk was short but was also tough.
Glad we could take advantage of the nicer weather, the snow mounds, and the perfect consistency for snowball fights.
Great day - however tiring and painful.
