Importing Weather

Stella with her favorite duck!

We have some beautiful snow outside, but we were locked in the house after only two hours of play.   Molly thought the Koi pond ice looked strong enough to hold a golden.  It wasn't, she had a very cold swim, so we were locked in the house till she could dry off.   When they called us all in to lock the dog door, Nala came in limping and they accused us of playing too rough with Nala.   It turns out that she just had ice build up between her toes and she was limping on all four feet.   So staying inside melted the ice and cured her limp while it dried off Molly. 

The human is all upset.   He says that some of our friends just came back from Hawaii and reported that there was beautiful weather there.  Meanwhile our government has imported all of this nasty weather from Canada.  According to the weather forecast, this Canadian cold front is responsible for all the snow and cold we have across our country, as well as all the rain and mudslides in California.

Meanwhile we have perfectly good weather going to waste in Hawaii.   Does it make sense that our government would import weather from Canada when we have perfectly good warm weather we are not even using in Hawaii?   Isn't there some kind of a law that we should try to avoid imports?   Write your Congressman, write your Senator, stop this travesty.   Next time a storm cloud goes by, look for the label, "Made in Hawaii, USA".

At ten this morning the humans watched the New Years celebration in Hong Kong, they lifted their glasses of Metamucil in a toast.  Then about noon they watched the fireworks over Dubai.  They said that now they won't have to stay up late tonight, they have already celebrated the new year.  Boy, what a bunch of boring friends we live with.    Molly and I are prepared to find something to bark at at midnight!

We listened in while our human talked with a person that is interested in taking Stella to help her through the operations.  They will need to meet Stella and they will need to make sure she gets along with their current resident Golden/Lab.  Their current lady is pretty laid back, she is a retired assistance dog.  Stella is a very high energy lady, and she may be too much for their retiree.  Several other goldens are also being considered, so we are very preliminary.   We have many Goldens in the rescue that are wonderful and worthy of such a wonderful home.  Besides, some people continue to suggest that Stella already has found her new home, we just have not admitted it yet. 

Have a Happy New Year!
