This sure does look warm and fuzzy, I think!! When the flame goes out, what actually is it?
Good afternoon, LTOS.
Wishing you a WF Wednesday. Sorry to hear that it is so cold in South Florida.
We are having a damp Cool Wednesday here. I need to go dig out a pair of sweats. :)
That is sooooooooooooo FUNNY! Wonder what kind of dog it is?? Maybe if we turn him around, we could tell what he is!! :) Thank you!!
Thanks, Lonestar! Kind of looked like my dog, d’Ogee ,a couple of hours ago when I let her out!
Good afternoon, Geologist.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts today and every day.
Wishing you a delightful Wednesday evening.
How odd is that?? :)
We now have almost 8" of snow and it's still coming down. It is too dark to take any more pictures, but, I'll post more tomorrow. (On the Police Scanner, they just said (and confirmed) that they cannot get down the main street to my lane.....it is solid ice.) Listening to the scanner, the highway (I-17 is closed from Flagstaff to the 179 exit.)
Very odd, he is hard to even get off the porch when it rains, but give him snow, and it is hard to get him in. Rock is a mini poodle.
< br > or < p >
The first pic was taken at 1pm, the second at 3pm and the third was taken at 5pm.
Great pictures, yorkie....you all are really getting it...looks like Bristol’s weather a week ago! Its hard to realize it snows in Arizona. I remember last year’s pictures you made with snow on the rocks! Isn’t it nice to be inside all comfy and warm, with snow falling all around? Stay warm and stay safe!!
Great pictures, Yorkie!! Thanks!!
Isn’t it interesting how they have a personality of their own! I grew up with a mini poodle my Grandmother gave us! His name was Chico and he was an excellent dog!
No problemo!!
What an amazing story!!
In 1972, Joe Miller was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Tulsa Junior College .
On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Joe approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee, inspected the elephants foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Joe worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.
The elephant turned to Joe, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Joe stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled.
Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Joe never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.
Thirty years later, Joe was walking through the Tulsa Zoo with his family. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Joe and his family were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Joe, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.
Remembering the encounter in 1972, Joe could not help wondering if this was the same elephant... Joe summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Joe's legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.
Probably wasn't the same elephant.

Marissa and I loved the video, Yorkie. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, Jaycee.
The Graphic was by Lori .... I missed giving her credit when I made today’s Opening Post.
Those two white warm Fuzzies are so precious, Jaycee. Thank you.
Good evening, Teenie.
When I went to bed last night, we had received 1/3 inch of rain. This morning, the rain gauge showed 1 1/3 inches. That is a lot of rain overnight. It seems to be getting colder tonight. The wind was blowing earlier.
Wishing you a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday evening.
Good evening, Jack.
Thanks for the sweet poem and the great graphics.
Wishing you a lovely Wednesday evening.
Thanks for the WF Wednesday Hug, Teenie.
