| Weather: Everybody talks about it | |
| By: Queenie Date: January 7, 2022, 9:19 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| We're having our first snowstorm of the season. The roads are | |
| fairly bad and the problem is exacerbated by the newbies who | |
| don't know how to drive in it and don't have the sense to stay | |
| home until it's safe. The first one seems like it's always the | |
| worst. | |
| LCP would be in heaven if she could get anyone to go outside | |
| with her. You can just see her little brain trying to figure | |
| out how it could possibly be that we don't think this is super | |
| fun. She keeps bringing her favorite toy to the door and | |
| inviting us to come outside and play. | |

| Unfortunately, the human who would do this is currently in my | |
| living room, having already run in here to tell me to look out | |
| the window! Look! Look! Look! | |

| It was 2 degrees outside when I left for work, I do not share | |
| LCP's joy. | |
| I bet even Lab is wearing pants today. | |

| With windchill, 18F here in DC metro on morning of 2nd snow | |
| storm in last four days. | |
| Everyone in the country saw on Mon the cluster that is DC in a | |
| snowstorm. | |
| I'd gladly brave the cold to go out to play with LCP: I've never | |
| played in the snow with a Lab, but I bet pretty good money that | |
| I'd love it. | |

| Today there are 4 weather warnings and advisories for flooding | |
| and high winds here (2 fewer than the last couple of days). | |
| But, wet and windy isn't so bad when the temperature is above | |
| freezing. Heck, today the high is forecast at a balmy 9 degrees | |
| C. Those of you in the cold, try to stay warm. | |

| When I first got Dakota, we went to Humboldt Park for winter | |
| walks. The lagoon froze over enough to walk on, and there was a | |
| huge building on the edge of the lagoon with an outdoor balcony. | |
| One day, we're out on the ice, and a guy is standing on the | |
| balcony idly throwing snowballs in no particular direction. | |
| Dakota notices the throwing and pulls me closer to that end of | |
| the lagoon. So I ask the guy to throw some near her. (I've got | |
| her on a 30' leash and let it play all the way out.) He throws a | |
| snowball, and it lands about 10' from her in about a foot of | |
| powdery snow. She sprints to it, noses the snow, digs for a bit, | |
| and comes out with the snowball. I ask him to do it again, and | |
| she does the same thing. He enjoys the game, too, and repeats it | |
| several more times. She always came up with his snowball. | |
| The short answer is: you'd absolutely love playing in the snow | |
| with a Lab. | |

| As far as I can tell, this one makes absolutely everything into | |
| the funnest game ever. | |
| ME: LCP, go to your bed. | |
| LCP: (sprints pell mell across the room and leaps into her bed | |
| with a joyous in-air full twist, lands facing me, ready for the | |
| next exciting thing.) | |
| ME: LCP, get your head out of the dishwasher. | |
| LCP: (Jumps away from dishwasher, faces me expectantly, | |
| awaiting the next exciting thing.) | |
| ME: LCP, sit. | |
| LCP: Stops eating her dinner mid-chew, sits promptly, gazes | |
| intently at me awaiting the next exciting thing.) | |
| I can't even describe the aquatic games of fetch, the thing | |
| where the verminator pretends to be mad and whacks her | |
| repeatedly and she likes it, or how excited she gets at the mere | |
| sight of the pheasant hunting shotgun's case. | |
| Everything is fun. Ev. Ry. Thing. | |
