The Bandit! Journal

West Newbury is resting up to get ready for the bacchanalia known as Bandit! Liberation Day tomorrow. Its been a full year since we sprang him from doggy jail. Casual observation suggests he's more becoming more relaxed around the house.

Sort of a slow weekend here on Rogers Hill, so we're bringing you a 'Best of Bandit!' Photo

Winter is Bandit!'s favorite time of year. He's well insulated and mostly snow-proof. He loves snow - especially fresh powder. After good dog-deep snow storm, he'll spend hours plowing through the snow, bounding through the snow, digging through the snow, rolling through the snow, pushing his people through the snow.... For some recreation this afternoon, we decided to go hunting for one of the Bavarian Husky's favorite foods - snow cookies. Wild snow cookies are much more fun than regular cookies you find in kitchens.

It may have been only 10 degrees here in West Newbury, but it was worth sitting out in the driveway to watch the light fade on the White Mountains.
