Took the huskies out this AM hoping to “miss the rain” from the giant winter storm we are getting. My house in Tahoe is supposed to get 4-6 feet. Doh. Husky Mom fail that we are stuck down here at the beach with rain, wind, rain and then some rain.
As we left it was actually blue sky sunny over the house. You could see the black clouds over Mavericks and the ocean but I was hoping to miss it. Umm..nope..notsomuch. As soon as we got to the beach, started pouring. Awesome. Oh well – the huskies were having fun and I have a good rain jacket. It was just enough rain to get soaked but not to the point where they start to hate it. Actually, Storm hates the rain more than Angelus. Angelus doesn’t care unless it’s super-duper windy and blowing the rain in his face and eyes. I’m pretty sure no matter how much it rains, his undercoat still doesn’t get wet! And Storm seemed happy to be out :)
On the beach we met another husky! He started running towards us so I let Angelus off leash and he took off! He was a red and white boy named Liam. He was almost as big and fluffy as Angelus! It’s so funny when huskies meet up. They instantly know they are part of the same general pack and start talking and running together. Very cute. I wish it wasn’t raining so I could have videoed it with the dang iPhone 4 that I bought just for these occasions! Doh! *shakes fist*
Got them home and dried them off. Peeled off my dripping wet layers and headed to the kitchen to make hot coffee. All of a sudden Angelus starts tearing through the house. Up and down all the stairs, running around in circles in all of the rooms and stopping only to find me and RUFF at me and then tear off again. Clearly the walk tired him out :)
It actually stopped raining now. Angelus knew exactly when it did too. He came and found me in the kitchen and stared at me. So I let him out in the front yard where he is right now, nose in the air sniffing good smells brought in with the wind, happy as a husky. The little bugger better not start digging in the mud! Pile of dog towels are by the door waiting for when it starts raining again. Storm on the other hand is laying here by me, also happy as a husky.
What good boys. :)
