I almost let winter slip away without any Da Boys photos, but 22″ of snow over the weekend let me take a couple iPhone shots behind our house. These are GSD’s, not Dachshunds with pointy ears.

Kirsch is inventive, when there is too much snow to find sticks, just climb a tree and bite off a branch.

More,  for all the snow deficient locations…

Yesterday, on my normal evening walk with da boys, I noticed a couple of the spruce trees had grown icicles.  It was worthy of a trip back to the house to get the camera.  The icicles were only on a few trees that missed the wind, and caught the heat from the sun, just right.

The fresh snow from the last storm had da boys all excited, thinking that winter had come again, so here’s a couple photos of them, plus one I liked just as the sun was ready to set behind them.

Michele has been trying to stop looking at this blog because all the puppies are just too darn cute!

Since it seems like it’s the thing to do, here are our annual

“da boys” snow pics.

It’s busy here in the

winter – we’ve got to check the bird house to make sure the

chipmunk that was hiding there last summer was gone,

there was garland to make, and kindling to gather.We have to chase the bunnies

at night, and track the deer that sneak through the woods.  We don’t know

what Michele and Garth would do without us.
