The small dog and I took our 30-second power walk this morning. Daily, during the winter, we dash to the end of the driveway and then back to the house. He can't stand to have snow on his paws, and I don't want a stray drive-by to get a glimpse of my morning self. We agree that morning walks should be just for business. BUT, today.....as we marched out onto the unplowed, white driveway we knew something was different. Unfamiliar tracks on the snow. The small dog sniffed and I scanned. The tracks climbed the snow banks, walked around the house, circled the compost. This was a new visitor to our yard. A nimble scavenger. Caution was in the air. The dog doors will be closed tonight.
