Whew - we took Gucci for a 2 hour walk and i don&#39;t know who&#39;s the most exhausted.  At least it&#39;s 70 here.. fabulous weather for a long walk.  I must say Tony and I are both having severe withdrawals... we long so much to go back on the road.  We still have a booking for the summer in Alaska, we haven&#39;t canceled it as we were holding hopes that the gas prices would tank.  It&#39;s looking pretty good now, but who knows what it&#39;s going to be like by March/April.  We would have to leave in April to get to Canada by Mid May.  We&#39;ll see.... we have so many irons in the fire and so many variables apply that it sure doesn&#39;t look like we&#39;ll be able to get away.<br /><br />Cheryl - are you feeling any better about your hairstyle yet?<br /><br />Ed - Puff sounds just like Gucci... the weather conditions have to be near perfect for her to enjoy outside.  She hates the wet and only experienced snow twice on our trip through Canada on our way to Alaska... she didn&#39;t really know what to make of it - she kept on searching for the grass to go potty on&#33;<br /><br />Jenn &amp; Falina - take care in that weather.  I must say we don&#39;t like driving in snowy conditions, and icy... well forget that&#33;<br /><br />Rose - looks like we are going to have quite a warm up this week... Indian summer hey.<br /><br />
