Good morning and Happy snowy Monday Ottawa!

My northern dogs had a great time dragging me through the snow banks this morning and it was nice to enjoy the quiet of our beautiful city transformed after the snowstorm.

Have a great start to the week!

Ottawa folks I highly recommend skating or walking/running along the @NCC_Skateway to work this morning it’s in way better shape snow wise than the impassable sidewalks.

Sidewalks who needs them when they can just be snow storage for the roads. I know there was a lot of snow but yesterday the sidewalks were passable and now they’re massive snowbanks while the roads are clear. #Autowa as usual showing that it prioritizes cars and not people.

Very snowy Sunday in Ottawa.

My Northern dogs have been enjoying the snowy weather lately and having lots of fun playing and sniffing in the snow.

Happy Gotcha day to the best girl!

I can’t believe it was a year ago that Ocean arrived from Nunavut. It’s been a wild year and I could never have imagined all the ups and downs of our journey together and unexpected puppies but it’s been the best adventure with my sweet girl.

It’s always a good morning when you see the Rideau Canal Skateway juggler.

Sebastian is very dedicated to his role as branch manager and was living his best life this afternoon with all the fallen branches from the wild windstorm.

Started the day with a beautiful sunrise over the Rideau Canal Skateway and ended the day with a beautiful sunset over the Rideau Canal skateway.

Another great winter weekend in Ottawa!

Good morning and Happy Saturday!

It’s a chilly but beautiful morning in Ottawa. The dogs and I enjoyed the pretty peaceful sunrise over the Rideau Canal Skateway.

I love that even when it’s cold there are lots of people out for an early skate.

Have a great day!

Just a boy and his stick.

Sebastian is very passionate about his role as branch manager.

The relaxing start to 2025 that Ocean deserves after her wild year last year. Hoping 2025 is a calmer year for both of us (and puppy free, other than Sebastian).

There’s no better way to start the new year than with a peaceful walk with these two even if it’s a grey dreary day in #Ottawa .

Since the snow has mostly melted we went to Lansdowne rink snowpile for some snowy fun.

I hope you have a great start to the year!

Some end of 2024 reflections.

At the end of last year I told myself I was finally ready to get a dog after lots of dogsitting experience and finally being rooted in one place after years of moving around but I could never have imagined the chaos of Ocean’s 11.

Good morning!

It’s a beautiful snowy morning here in Ottawa. The dogs and I had a peaceful snowy walk enjoying all the neighborhood snow creations. A lovely way to start the day.

Have a great day!

Thanks @devoncantwell.bsky.social for sharing your Jewish traditions and hosting my visiting family for a delicious Christmas and first night of Chanukah dinner. Grateful for our little Ottawa chaos dogs extended family.

Santa Paws brought Ocean and Sebastian lots of toys and treats which they deserve because they are the best dogs.

Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah to those who celebrate!

Good morning and Happy Sunday!

It’s a chilly but beautiful morning here in Ottawa but we were treated to a beautiful moonset and pretty pink sunrise. A lovely way to start the day.

Have a great day!

A lovely relaxing day of wanders in Ottawa enjoying the snow, the cool looking fog, and some good coffee and birthday treats.

The best birthday morning walk buddies.

Lots of crunchy snowy sniffs and snowy playtime.

I’m lucky to live somewhere so beautiful and to get to share it with these two sweet chaos dogs. Looking forward to a nice relaxing day of snowy wanders.
