On the other hand, its quiet, and the local keeper gave me a cheery wave despite there supposedly being a ban on dogs in this area. <br />Bruno wil not only dig outt yor tent, but will eat the snow.Then , when thoroughly soaked, he'll then fall asleep on your sleeping bag!Mike Knipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12792636586674245725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-44196220759739242142011-12-12T09:30:53.161+00:002011-12-12T09:30:53.161+00:00Lovely write up Mike.
