One day last week, I took the dogs hiking at the Powell Marsh...

Kody kept going and going, and I had to eventually turn him around at three-quarters of a mile out...

I didn't feel like carrying him back to the car.

Kelly and I took Finlay back Saturday...

We hiked a couple miles out, past Homestead Lake..

It's the lake in the southwest part of the map linked above.

We got about four inches of snow, so I gave the snowblower a little workout...

I did it mostly to keep the driveway from being full of ruts when the weather turned colder and froze the sloppy snow solid.
