No epic adventures yet this week, but Cody and I went on some nice runs and took a few photos. Occasionally we let Ryan tag along.
Sunday, 11/17/13- 10 miles on the Beaver Brook trail, starting at
Genesee Park:

Tuesday, 11/18/13-
Fairmount Trail
 |
| Epic clouds on a morning run |
 |
| The clouds were nuts |
 |
| This is from our 'flat path' trail- a non-mountain run. It is called the Fairmount Trail and is right by our house |
It was 60 degrees on Wednesday, so Cody and I went to a nearby lake to run/swim (Cody did mostly swimming, I did mostly running)
 |
| 60F- perfect swimming weather, says Cody! |
 |
| Dog on a log |
After our 60 degree day on Wednesday, the temperature dropped to 15 degrees while snowing 2" overnight. It then proceeded to snow another 2" for the rest of the day. Cody and I were thrilled!! We went to our favorite park-
White Ranch- and played in the snow:

| Run Happy :) |
 |
| Snow over the valley |
 |
| Cody INSISTED that she pose on this rock |
 |
| The snow was just so beautiful- I didn't care that my hands froze taking all these pictures. |
 |
| The snow on her face is all from the air- she didn't even roll in the snow! |

Towards the end of our run, we came up on a herd of deer. Usually I don't let Cody chase deer, but this time I let her go. I'm glad the deer played along and 'ran' away….they probably just laugh at this pathetic little dog trying to hop through the snow and tall grass. As you can see in this video, she gives chase for like 10 seconds, then immediately turns around to come back to me, and is just SO proud of herself. I really should get her a herd of sheep to boss around.
Cody took a rest day Friday, doing a lot of this:
 |
| Full body snuggles |
 |
| Help! I'm being snuggled to death! |
After her day of rest, she was ready for a 12 mile run at
Centennial Cone park on Saturday.
 |
| Isn't this just a perfect winter scene? |
 |
| Some trails only had a little bit of snow |
We had a great week!
