Well here at north Peterborough, we seem to have had more of the soft fluffy white stuff than most. The average level height without any wind or rather breeze blown stuff is just over 6 inches.
The dogs think it is great and we went out for our walk just before 8 o'clock.
Keeping the scooter speed off maximum, we were able to cope well, with little or no wheel spinning. The only problem was crossing car and cycle tracks which my little wheels wanted to follow and the pushing through higher snow than I had clearance under the scooter drained the battery much faster, meaning we had to turn round to go back much sooner.
Much sooner actually being the distance we had travelled rather than the time we were out as we were still out about an hour.
Tessa wasn't happy though having to wear her Doggles, as they all wanted to roll and rub in the snow. The pup though had a great time even though most of the snow reached his tummy.
The septicemia is now cleared up, as also the internal infection which was causing my wound to open up and stopping it healing.
The pain is managable and life is going on, but I am still finding it hard to concentrate or sit in a set position for long.
That's it
Take Care Out there

Hiya Barry. Your post cheered me up no end, today. I can just imagine the gang frolicking in the snow..apart from Dinky. I assume Tessa must wear her doggles because of the glare from the snow. Thank goodness your infections have cleared up. It looks like you are on the road to recovery, at last. Take care, my friend, Pen.
ReplyDeleteIt is very brave of you Barry to even attempt going out in this stuff on your scooter with the dogs! I haven't been brave enough to venture out in it. Dog's love in the snow dont' they? Are you only posting over here on blogger now? Hope not. Oh, and thanks for listing my blogs on your Sites I love to Visit list. You are most kind
ReplyDeleteReally pleased to read that you are considerably better now... and able to blog a bit with your news.
ReplyDeleteWe have 3 or 4 inches of snow here. We've been clear virtually, till this morning. The dogs are loving playing in it. At least they come in wet and not muddy as has been the case lately.
Take care and don't over-do things.
