looking for alternatives

Kensi's not above splashing through puddles, but prefers to veer towards the shallow side, or even better, traipsing through a few inches of snow. This was shot when we still had some snow. In the last week, we've lost about 90% coverage. The front yard currently looks like mud. On the plus side, conditions are perfect for some springtime robin arrival!

In case you're wondering, I have not made it into Madison for the protests. Although, I'm on the side of those speaking out against the governor's actions, I've been on fence about whether I need to be in the way of someone who is more directly effected by this bill. BUT, in the long run, I most likely will be effected since this guy is all about quieting the voice of the people he supposedly serves...

Hmm, I kind of took my initial logic there and blew it right out of the water, didn't I? See what a good debate can offer a person? Even if it's with themselves! ha!!

Who knew Wisconsin would be such a protest arena? Guess I'd hate to be one of those jobs about to be cut...
