The year is coming to the end. What a year! Record heat in the summer. No real rain to speak of. Now winter is in full form with the cold moving in. The trails are getting matted down after the heavy snow we had. Hopefully the city will run the plow around the main trails. Keep the walks short with the extreme cold.

Dec. 20 2021 

A bit of a chill in the air but overall winter hasn't been that bad so far. Famous last words!!! These little fellows are bothered at all.

Dec. 06 2021

Nasty cold day for walking! Keep it short. It's not fun walking with cold paws. The Sun Dogs were wonderful this morning!

There are a couple of trees that have come down on the Golf Course Trail and one in the Big Field, I have contacted the city about it. The garbage bags are being placed around the park.

Nov. 11 2021

We're back!!! The first real snow of the season started last night. The trails are very mushy to say the least.

Nov. 01 2021

Well we had our first taste of snow yesterday. Didn't stick around for more than a minute but shapes of things to come. The trails are greasy from the rain snow mix so be carefull walking. Darlene and I took care of the garden today as well. It sure looked great all summer long. It was lonely walking without my Sage today. Thanks to everyone and all their support.

That didn't take long for the snow to disappear! There is very little standing water around the park. The trails are a tad muddy so break out the towels. Oh ... ticks are hatching as well!

Try to avoid the trails for a while. They are very icy. We don't need any torn up legs.

Well I am not sure if that counts as coming in like a lion or not but hopefully the was that last of the bitterly cold days. The Golf course trail has blown in along the open section, the usual spot.

Another cold one out there today. So far the best we have done is just short walks and in the treed trails. It's no fun for the dogs if their feet are cold! Keep it short. Hopefully the cold snap will break soon. Maybe next week.

So far this has been not a bad winter at all. A couple of cold days in January at -30's, a few nice days, and we are back to a normal day today. The city has done a few of the trails again which makes it very nice for walking.
