BevLive: Let it snow!

All our good plans for today were ruined by, of all things, a snow storm. I got up this morning the wind was tearing through Colorado and it was snowing. So no final practice session for Meg. I packed up the camper in the snow and rain and wind, poor me, and headed down hill to Colorado Springs. A very windy drive through Monarch Pass. Happily on the other side of the pass the sun was out, so while it was very windy the twisty mountain roads were not icy

I pulled into the trial field around 1:00. Nice bright sun but tremendous wind. It's rocking my camper and whistling and rattling.Very unpleasant.

Meg managed to get in one more outrun. The disadvantage of now having her looking 300 yards for sheep is that she took off after the whole trial flock with them 300 yards away. I  was 20 feet away from her screaming and she never heard a word. Did a lovely quite gather.Grateful for small mercies. I was able to get Joe tied up and drive after her in the truck while she quietly fetched 200 sheep up to the campers. Not much chance anyone missed her performance. At least she didn't chase them. When will I ever learn?

No Phone coverage here so I will send in my blogs to Heather when I get onto town. Sure hope the wind quits by tomorrow. It's really bad.
