Hurricane Sandy and the aftermath...

We all made it through Sandy with little more than a bunch of pine needles dumped in our pool - we didn't even get all that much rain. We are feeling incredibly fortunate and our thoughts are with so many of our friends who are displaced or in the dark tonight.

The real aftermath here were three dogs who got little more than a few quick potty breaks yesterday - all three of my yellows were stir-crazy! We didn't have enough daylight for a proper hike or romp this afternoon - but forty-five minutes of (nearly continuous) galloping around the school yard seems to have unwound the effects of two days at a trial and one day sequestered by Hurricane Sandy...And now there is a bit of peace in the valley.
