There Is No Fun Like Snow Fun
We Siberian Huskies know how to turn anything into an exciting game, but there is no fun quite as entertaining as snow fun. We woke up Saturday morning to an additional 5.5 inches of snow on the ground. The snow was powdery, dry and fluffy – the absolute best kind. Our high was 14ºF (-10ºC)…

New Year’s Eve Blizzard 2016
