almost too late, but we squeezed in the evening run

i got kinda behind today and by the time i was finishing the barn it was getting dark. shoot! i missed the evening walk, but then i thought, that is not fair to them. so i shoved the barn guys into their stalls and tossed them some hay to hold them for a bit. i grabbed most of the dogs but not maudie, norton, copper or jazz cuz it was just too dark to take them out, and off we went. i do not know what i was thinking, it will be another 5 days now before they get out in the evening again, cuz i am back to work tomorrow. how many more evening walks do moses, and dexter and bill actually have? not fair to rip them off because of my poor planning. they had a blast, i think cole likes running in the shadows best anyway. the dark dogs show up against the white snow so it was easy to round everyone up again when we were done. moses couldn't finish the walk and came home early again on his own. right after i finished feeding the barn guys and came back in, ellen arrived with some great large fleece coats for the big dogs, hey, they get cold too.. dexter is sporting a jungle print, and i am just about to go stick a ruby flowery one on moses too. thx ellen, those are really nice and toasty after a cold winter evening run.
omg! 2 chuckles in one night, you are on a roll!
and yes it is still hanging there...stubborn little sucker, ain't it?
