Winter is here. The snow is finally falling and we are back at Chestnut Mountain in Galena, IL. This ski season is different and special. Jonathan has been hired as a full time pro patroller and lives at Chestnut Mountain Resort working and patrolling during the week. I come over every weekend and volunteer patrol a day or two each weekend. We are enjoying calling Galena and Chestnut home for this winter and are thrilled that Werner is able to stay with Jonathan in his outdoor kennel at Chestnut.
Jonathan, Emily, and Werner on the bank of the Mississippi RiverAs you can see by our red coats, we passed our exams at the end of last year and are officially auxillary patrollers. This year we will be participating in more ski clinics and learning how to safely transport patients in a toboggan.
Werner is 6 months old now and loves going on hikes and exploring new smells.
He has gotten better at retrieving and loves....
....playing with sticks and carrying things in his mouth.
Even though he is getting bigger, he still loves to be held and is a floppy, soppy puppy.
