Four days from now I am getting on a plane and traveling to Los Angeles for 10 days. Until then, I’m firmly situated in Home Base with the heat on, candles burning, the warmth of my laptop, the hot water bottle I sleep with, and whatever heat I can generate from any exercise that I muster after forcing myself out from under my down comforter.
It goes without saying that the Eskimo dog has her own built-in winter insulation. And the beauty of watching her cream-colored fur coat against the snow almost makes the weather of the season worth it.
