What a difference a few days makes! On Monday we had lovely sunshine reminiscent of the late days in fall but on our walk today it has been snowing. There is already enough snow to cover the branches and were it not for Lusi's coat, it would be quite difficult to see her against the landscape such as it is. I should probably have bought her a bright red coat and not a green one as it only seems to have added to her ability to be completely camouflaged when she is under the fir trees!
We made our way through the trees and brush to avoid being on the river bank; the water level was so high from two days of rains that it had flooded over the bank in some parts and I was concerned that Lusi might try to investigate the newly created river bank if we walked too close to the river. In fact the current was so strong and the water flowing so fast that it might easily carry an unsuspecting pup down-stream. I need not have worried so much though because Lusi was in fact happy to play in the snow and then she played "recall" from the bushes which we both enjoyed.
