Winter is Here and Regrets Come Knocking





So, Winter has set down already and it has made me wish we would have moved to Nashville a little quicker.  We'll be there in a year or two, but for now we'll settle for this crazy plot of land.  We're not even calling it a yard... it's the grounds.  My friend, Jill Thompson, asked me to post some pics of the new digs so I uploaded some pics from today.


As it started to snow again, and I needed to get Emma tired enough to sleep thru my afternoon work, I took her outside to play in the snow.  (Yes, I'm going to become one of those people.  The guy who calls his dog baby girl and acts like it's my kid...except like with training and stuff.)  I walked her around the "grounds and then into our few acres of woods to explore.  We found some kind of shed deep in the trees that could only be used for scary Jason type shit.  (not to be confused with the smoke house we have in our yard that is also used for murdering and such.)  As Saint Bernards were bred to dig people from avalanches in the Swiss Alps, she takes to the snow like a champ.  After we walked for awhile I noticed that she would follow the scent of our previous tracks and run them like a track.  Seeing how much she wanted to run, I let her off leash and she has a ball.  Sprinting across the yard until she would decide to flip and roll thru the snow.  It was  true joy to watch.  

So here are few pics of Emma Bob Young, 16 weeks and 40 lbs.  

And a little teaser from a later issue of Oz.  

enjoy.

I think you need more room, there is nowhere near enough space. I am getting claustrophobic just looking at it.

Hearing all this track sniffing and stuff your dog can do makes me envious. My stupid pug can't sniff out a salami stick when I put it half a foot from him. Then again they were bred for having heads like a busted arse so in that he exceeds.

Tell me about it. She's a smart one as well. We've taught here a hand full of tricks and what not. I'm telling you Brax, get yourself one, you won't be sorry!

Young Manor looks even cooler than you described. Emma will love running those grounds I'm sure.

We got snow in Kansas City But not as deep as your's. Like the new place, it's wide open. The new book is awesome, take care. Steve
