Dobie of the hill!


As you were a child, did you ever play king of the hill on the mounds of snow left after a storm?  I remember many more and much larger snow drifts in the past.  They were so fun to play on. 
Granted when I walk back into the schools I went to as a child I think to myself, "It seemed much bigger then."  Age, experience, and physical growth all change our perspective.

Playing Dobie of the Hill!
The snow hit here a week ago, and we have had several days of sunshine. The piles of snow created by plows pushing it out of the way are slightly more compacted and perfect for king of the hill. 
Our Dobermans figured out very quickly that this heavily compacted snow was perfect for playing their games.  My Jenny came creeping over the hill and stared down her mother with the look that says "I dare you to get me!"

Duchess took the dare and stood proud as "Dobie of the Hill".
