Wow, it's been a long time since I last posted. I blame the fact that I returned to the east coast for a week...and then forgot about it. Well, here goes again:
I had an incredible time back in NH/VT. For 3 days, I visited with friends in NH and was a groomsmaid in a college friend's wedding. The groom and I used to work Residence Life together at Saint Mike's, so it was a great reunion. A great dress, awesome friends, an ice ream truck, slip n' slide, and so much food.....incredible wedding. Pictures can be seen on facebook.
The rest of my time was spent in VT....it was not enough time. It did include a trip to Ben and Jerry's and apple picking, which are two of my favorite things. Maybe next time I'll be able to spend a couple weeks devoting time to the people I really love.
It was hard leaving Vermont to come back to Colorado. I've missed living in the Green Mountains. However, once I got back here, it didn't take me long to remember why I loved it so much. On the drive home, I went through a snowstorm at 10,000 feet. Ten minutes later, blue skies erupted over the Rockies. Even better, when I pulled into the driveway, the dogs went nuts. They were what I missed most of all.
For the past few days, I have started a new job at a local boarding kennel called The Barnyard. I get paid to play with a pack of dogs all day. I'm sure I'll get dogged out at some point, but right now it's just fun. It never fails to amaze me how dogs can be so generous and happy. They always know how to make me laugh.
In other news, training officially starts tomorrow. The dogs can smell it in the air...plus, they can see Bill hanging up harnesses and starting up the ATV. I can't wait to finally see them run!
