My mistake, of course, was to add that last line in yesterday’s post … the one where I pointed out the very last patch of snow at the ranch.  I should have known better.  We woke up this morning to three inches of snow, the wind howling, and visibility less than 1/4 mile. 

That meant a snuggly day for the dogs.  At lunch time I was trying out a new video camera and captured what our living room looked like.  (Our last video camera died many months ago, which is why there haven’t been any ranch videos on the blog in a long time!)  Not shown in this video were several other dogs in the house:  blind Willie and blind Kenai asleep on cots behind me, blind Helen asleep in Alayne’s office, Dolly asleep in our bedroom, blind Joey in the green crate you’ll see in this piece, and then Alayne’s "minions," as I call them … blind Goldie and Oscar the Doxie, swirling around Alayne’s ankles in the kitchen.

There’s nothing exciting or funny going on here.  But it will probably make you want to go take a nap.

    I THOUGHT you were being a little hasty in thinking that was the last of the snow!!! Honestly it looks like a little slice of heaven with all the snoozers in your home. I think I need to confess a crush on deaf Tyler. It’s our secret.

    Made me kinda weepy thinking about all these guys and their pasts and how different it is now for them. How wonderful to have a full tummy, have the confidence to snooze without fear of abuse or starvation or pain from injuries, and the peace of mind to snuggle in for nap among friends and know there is a tomorrow. Wow! Great video! Thanks!!

    I had thought if the dogs were in because of inclimate weather that they would be in Widgets house; HA! HA! I’m happy to see the ranch’s dogs have used the same mind control tactics that my pets use on me! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
