The temperature here today is -3F which is about -19C. Enough that both my wife and my MIL said they thought it'd be bad for my health to be Kilted. So, in deference to them, I am wearing trousers today and very uncomfortable.

Betsy is mostly well behaved. She learned things fat and you can tell she's trying very, very hard. But she absolutely cannot stop herself from jumping up on people. I know it'll fade with time so I'm not worried.

Since she is so big and is rather bulky we think she may have something big like Rottweiler or Dalmatian or something in her. Time will tell.


If I ever get my hands on some bagpipes while it's snowing I'll redo the picture!
