O winter! bar thine adamantine doors: The north is thine; there hast thou built thy dark Deep-founded habitation. Shake not thy roofs Nor bend thy pillars with thine iron car.

Wm. Blake (1783)

A lovely day out on the trail , as things get back to normal for us. The day we got back ,Mendon was snow free! ( shocking, remember the crappy job I did on my fall leaves...) but a little here and there has added up. Beautiful, peaceful day, saw some puppies out .. a nice romp, now a nap. A dogs life is a good life!
