Hard snow, and that scary plastic stuff!

On our walk this morning Devin and I went to check out the ice on the outdoor rink.  We wandered around the area for a bit, then I scared the bejesus outta myself!

Picture this***

I was stepping on the hard snow
minding my own business
just sniffing around

~end tranquil scene~




when all of a sudden my rear foot dropped through the snow and hit off an empty plastic ginger ale bottle.
The bottle let off one heck of a CRUNCH, I booked it outta there like gunfire and went flying to the end of my leash.   Mr. Usain Bolt, you have nothing on me!


Devin reeled me back in and brought me over to the "scary plastic thing".Devin made the bottle go "crunch crunch", and showed me it wasn't such a scary thing at all. 

We roamed around the hard snow covered soccer field, made our way to the big rocks.  Devin stepped cautiously but not cautiously enough on the ice and went flying.  Devin best describes it as a movie, where the person falls on the ice, sliding across their back in slow motion until they finally come to a stop. 
Well lucky for Devin i was on the other end of the leash, I think I played a part in the slow motion. I stood on the hard snow, and when Devin finally came to a stop I carefully walked over to see why Devin was laying on the ground.   Silly humans.     When Devin got up, it was then noticed that I had a tiny cut on my toe from when I went down through the snow and on to the plastic bottle.

I tell ya, It comes in 3's!     Apparently David (David's Best Mate) from across the pond had a similar incident with him and his Mum.  He slipped, and David's Mum slipped too.  Nasty winter weather!

Anyway,
Not much else to report on in these parts.  We've been keeping a low profile for the most part.
I love my bed and couch time.

Here are a few photos of my battle toes and corns
Corn 1 (keeps falling out and coming back slightly smaller)
Corn 2 - still a work in progress
