The Plot thickens…

SandyA. – Karl has always responded to other Northern Breeds and they to him – a bit uncanny!

Buck – understood, I run out of them also in trying to describe things. I am biased having chosen this corner of MT…

SuzieQ – she was smallish for a Malamute, I do not think because of youth, although certainly don’t think she was “senior”. 6 inches seems quite a lot of snow for NC – so glad you are enjoying it!

Marge – I will be there “with bells on” and a bit of the Rye to send you off!

Buckskins Rule – That has to be a pretty sight! – the Malamute and the Buckskins.

Thanks to all – happy that the post was enjoyed.

As to the plot – if all goes according to plans formulated yesterday, Karl and I (and maybe Bob…) will reprise the trip to Missoula this afternoon – spend the night and return WITH the motorhome on Wednesday afternoon. Details to follow….

The photos alone made the trip worthwhile! They are beautiful!

Ann, great photographs as always! And what a beautiful dog. Two Alaskan Malamute live here, so I too, wholeheartedly approve of the northern breeds.

Just think! Now you can see the beautiful scenery again as you return for the RV! Beautiful photos, as always. Did I tell you we’re going through Glacier on our way to Alaska in July? I’ll bring the wine if you want to stop by our campsite!

What beautiful pictures..the dog bears an amazing resemblance to my malamute, Wolf, but doesn’t appear as large. We actually got 6 inches of snow overnight and my dogs and I have had a blast playing in it today. OK now,those of you laughing at that amount of snow, we haven’t had that amount in years here in this part of NC so it’s a big deal to us!!

Good post Ann! I agree with the first commenter ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ and now after seeing the scenery I have a ‘Mouth Wide Open’. LOL Thanks for the pics, always enjoyable.

Those photos gave me chills, Ann. I hope things work out as Glenn and I hope and we get to regularly see in person what you have caught so beautifully on film.

That ol’ saying “discretion is the better part of valor” comes to MY mind when it comes to navigating an RV and a toad in the diminishing light of a winter’s afternoon/evening. Especially in tight spaces constrained by ice/snow! I’m thinking you did the right thing by leaving the RV in the care of the maintainers… for the moment, anyhoo.

I’m also running out of superlatives to describe both your environment and your pictures of same. You do such gorgeous work, Ann.

Neat account of how the rest of your day went … a bummer about the repairs, but sounds like that was actually to your advantage this time.

Your mountain pictures are outstanding … the Mission Mountains are breath-taking!

The ’she’ dog is a beauty!
