One Last Shot--for Cuteness' Sake

Me & Zoe & Maddie (hiding behind the tree) on our Adirondack Adventure.

Do note the fabulous LLBean winter parka, complete with zip-out fleece liner. (Did I mention we got an outlet store here? Maybe that will get aerobil to visit!)

Mutt & Jeff Take a Snooze

Maddie (age 13 years and weighing 45 lbs.) and Zoe (8 months and 6 lbs.) take a rest after playing keepaway with chewies. Yes, this is my chronically dog-aggressive dog. Next to a puppy. Sometimes she even plays with Zoe, though I have a feeling play-pose is a bit hard on arthritic shoulders.

Of course, Maddie also decided to take off out the front door after the neighbor's cat yesterday. She slipped and half-fell down the front steps, quickly regrouped and took off again. Since she's almost completely deaf, I had to yell REALLY LOUD as I bounded after her, snagging her about 15 feet away. Sometimes the spirit gets way ahead of the body.
