This photo is of our dog, TJ, running down a hill in Maine the winter before he died. That dog loved the snow! He actually smiled when romping in the snow and I caught it this fine day. He was a handsome Alaskan Malamute, a northern breed working dog, who was happiest when hiking, pulling, sledding or just racing down snow covered paths in the park across the street from our house. It seems fitting at this time of year and brings back fond memories.
I submitted TJ's photo to Joan of The Retirement Chronicles in response to her photo contest on the theme: Dogs and Cats and won, or rather TJ won, first place. Check out Joan's amazing nature photography and her free monthly contests. See you there.
Enjoy your surroundings wholeheartedly wherever they may be.
