A little difficult to take Grover out running lately. Too icy and snowy out. But yesterday when I went down into the basement, I noticed a couple of pairs of snow shoes up in the rafters left there by Jake. I've never even tried it before. So with a little help from Audrey's friend Isaac... He showed me how to attach them to my boots. I was ready, and off I went.. into the wild blue yonder...I mean the Enosburg Golf Course.
Here we are at the 13th hole!!
As you can see by his tracks, Grover doesn't just run through the snow; he leaps, he bounds, he hops like a rabbit! But he always comes back when I call him. I think he likes this better than running on his leash.
The wind was blowing, the snow was sparkling but I was cozy in my skidoo suit.
I'm really a summer girl. You'll never hear me complain in the heat or humidity. I love to run and bike and swim. But theres something about the beauty of snow. Clean, white, crispy, crunchy brilliant lightness. Hiking here in this beautiful setting reminds me to appreciate all of the seasons. I am especially grateful that God gave me Grover. My babies are grown up. I never thought I'd have a dog. And I never thought I'd take so much delight in him. :) But here we are and we so enjoy a good walk together!
It also reminds me of how He sees me. Psalm 51:7 says: "Cleanse me with hyssop and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow."
