Winter Wonderland

So, apparently, Saturday's 7.7 Earthquake is still experiencing aftershocks, including at 6.2 last night. Crazy. We are too far away to really feel them, but every now and then somebody on facebook land mentions they felt something. And you go 'holy crap, still!"

Moreover, the snow continues to fall! Seriously. 
It's now at about 11-12 inches. 


PROOF!

First day of snow. Made the puppies a trail.
Alright.... and I know that I have been on puppy overload recently, but bare with me! 

With it being -20C this morning, I'm extraordinarily grateful that I finished my puppies coats!
They are super cute. And the pattern is unbelievably easy! 
Takes like an hour, two tops to finish the coats.

Caper's coat. 

I attempted to make them matching booties.
FAIL.

Eric and I just went out and bought them booties.
We struggled with sizes. And ended up with an xxs and itty bitty muttlucks
So far, puppies haven't really figured it them out. 
They look so funny wandering around in them, but once I kicked them outside they understood better. 

Trying to get the booties on! 

The look of uncertainty.
What am I supposed to do with these things on?
Anyways, I'm off to catch an airplane to Vancouver!










Time to escape this winterwonderland for the rainy west coast.

Earthquake

Prince George is inland. We are almost the centre of British Columbia
We aren't on any fault lines.

They say in the 1980s there was an actual earthquake with a local epicentre. 

Today, during my birthday dinner with friends and family, we experienced an earthquake.
It felt like I had had too many to drink. 
Or I was motion sick. 

It wasn't like any other earthquake.
It was more like swaying.
I grew up in Vancouver, we had different types of earthquakes. 
Ones that required you to go under tables and hide in door ways. 

It's reported as a 7.1 off the Pacific coast near Haida Gwaii.
