As long as there is snow...

As long as there is snow, there's bound to be someone somewhere running dogs through it. These days many of us are out there more often than not. December 1st will bring the reopening of the woods and trails, a close to deer season and that will put a smile on my face and an extra spring in the steps of these pups! Today was a good winter day - cold, calm and quiet. Boy those trails are looking good.

Muck Run 2010

Muck Run 2010...no ordinary run. Blue skies.Prom dresses. False eye-lashes. Crisp air. Ketchup and Halloween paint. Tieras and sashes. Crazy costumes all around. Dry trails and not a lot of muck...but so much fun!

Breckenridge

In 1859, minors found and mined the gold out of them-thar mountains and subsequently establiblished what would become known as the the town of Breckenridge, CO. It's a town established on the incredibly back-breaking hard work of a few men and women and now thrives on the 144 ski slopes carved along the peaks and even more shops and restaurants lining the short streets of town. Drive down Colorado hyw #9 and, lik me, you'll find yourself in the midst of it.

BLUE MOON

Every seven-eight years or so, a Blue Moon appears in the heavens, on the last night of 2009 - it was in full view. There was a little mysticism and a little magic in the air as it shone through the trees and over the fields; its gaze was captivating. The origin of the name is steeped in folklore - but it's said that when the Blue Moon occurred, it spoke to those in its light (- and it apparently kept the livestock in line).
As we said goodbye to 2009 we were able to enjoy the light of the Blue Moon, the last of this decade's.

What a sight to help us celebrate New Year's Eve.
