Spring Storm Part I - Morning Walk

This morning we woke up to SNOW!
Lots of snow.

"How will we go on our walk?"

"Where is the driveway?"

Walking to our park.  Windy again.  Just like yesterday's post LOL!  Except Tibby is wearing her winter coat and not her raincoat.

Our park is flooded.  We had fun watching people who were late to work try to take this road as a short cut.  They would zoom past us and then slam on the breaks when they realized the road was flooded.

Geese in our park?!?
This is the place Tibby was sitting yesterday.  There is a walking path underneath all that water and snow.
Check back later for our evening walk adventure.   I end up very wet..........

In Like A Lion and Out Like A Lion


March isn't being very nice to us.  It snowed the first week of March and now we are in a Winter Storm Warning for more snow.  What happened to the lamb?!? 


Tibby and I went for a walk.  It was windy, cold and raining. 


See?  Windy.
Also, notice dirty feet.  Tibby was so interested in watching one of my neighbors take in her garbage can that she walked into a pot hole full of dirty water. 


Our park is flooded.

The water is very deep.  Yesterday it was starting to flood, when we walked through the park, and the water was about 3 feet deep on the right side of the path.  The left side is a runoff pond - it's about 8 feet deep or maybe deeper. 


The road to the park will be flooded soon.  It floods every spring and then after any hard rain during the summer.  Good thing: No cars on the road.  Bad thing: The park also floods, so we can't walk there either.

After our walk it was time to rinse Tibby off.  Tibby is getting very good about 'wait'.  I left her in the tub and went to find her towel.  She didn't move at all!

Even when Catty came to laugh at her (or offer her sympathy?).
