It has been found that dogs have larger brains than cats since they are more sociable creatures. According to a study from Oxford University, highly social species of mammals need more brain power than solitary animals.  


I always knew that I liked dogs more for a reason.  

We were watching the dog show today and during the line up I saw her....looks like she's a Rhodesian Ridgeback.  Here is a pic I found online that looks like it could be of her.

When Hapa saw Dillon, the dog who lives behind us, for the first time she jumped off the deck, shown in the video below, and not that there's a lot of snow there now but it was way less when she decided to go for it.

So this is the unknown dog that came to our yard and made Hapa freak! Since having her in the house was causing a meltdown I let her loose and they had a pretty good time. Hapa only got in trouble once when she followed him to the rental house next door and wouldn't come back until I walked over, thru the snow in my slippers, and dragged her home.

So here she is, not using a pillow at all, laying by the fireplace. For the dog that was always hot I think the colorado cold is getting to her.

Here's Hapa using the pillow near the fireplace to stay warm during the power outage.

So this is what Lake Dillon looked like the other day on my drive to work.

So much for our Sunday...the storm that's going on this weekend has knocked out power from here to over 40 miles away and has been out since last night. I feel bad for the renters next door, they only have electric heat, and we have a broken gas fireplace that will hardly heat the Living Room it's located in.

Hopefully we'll have power back before dark but the storm is only getting worse.....
