We got some fresh snow today, and since it was snowing all day, most sidewalks weren't shoveled.  Going was slow, but while I was running some guy with his dog, after I exchanged pleasantries with him, told me I was fast.  When I laughed he said he saw me on the other side of town.  And then his dog ran out into the street, right in front of a car.

Don't worry.  No dogs were harmed in the making of this blog entry.  He made it.

That would've put a bit of a damper on the run. Glad the snow wasn't too bad that you couldn't get out.

Did you like the drama of the paragraph break?

From Burt on Fri, Jan 21, 2011 at 15:26:51 from 206.19.214.144

Ooh, the paragraph break did make all the difference. Nice writing. I have to say your writing skills are better than your picture taking skills.

I thought about getting my chops by creating a visual story of the life of Burt. But that seems like a lot of effort. We'll see.

Being an avid "dog person" your paragraph break had me on the edge of my seat.
