After Jon gave me snowshoes for Valentine's Day, I was eager to use them. The very next weekend, I met my good friend, Dena, in Santa Fe for a great day of non-stop talking, snowshoeing, shopping and eating. It was a beautiful day, and the dogs (Lucky and his best and oldest friend, Bear) thought it was heaven on earth. In case you didn't know, Lucky is a "snow dog".
Here I am, sitting on a picnic table - this just shows the level of the packed snow.

A beautiful view of the valley from the trailhead.

Lucky "owns" - or at least, he thinks he does.

Dena and Lucky - Her own dog, Bear, is off somewhere, actually getting excercise. Lucky, on the other hand, just came to get his picture taken.

Lucky and his mommy - awwww, so cute.

The golden aspens, bright blue New Mexico sky, and pure white snow - what a beautiful color combination.

Bear is always on the run, which would explain why he is much lighter and faster than Lucky. Note to Lucky: get off your butt, dog!

All in all, an excellent day - sky, snow, dogs, a good friend, and new toys.
