Snow Dancing

Here I am leading the pack!  Never mind that Tessa is doing what the boys are always doing..... such butt sniffers!  I can't imagine where they would have picked up such crude and crass behavior.  It must have been from their Daddy.  It certainly wasn't from MY side of the family!!
Regardless of the butt sniffing we are all doing a little square dancing practice.

Hi G-Fans!

Are we sick of snow this week?  I have heard we are getting another snoutful tonight or tomorrow.  And yet, I heard the spring songs from the birds the last few days.  I am not kidding.  I know a spring song when I hear one.  I am not deaf yet!

And let me say that today was rather spring like.  The concierge says it was up to fifty degrees today.  I don't really know what that means, but I know those aren't snow numbers...

I have mixed feelings on the snow thing.

It is fun to prance and cavort in, and snorting and sneezing in it is fun too, but I don't like how it balls up on my feet.  That dampens a perfectly good walk.  Speaking of which. the concierge promised a really good one for tomorrow, snow or no snow.  She will find a suitable way to get me out and about, oh, and the others too I suppose.

Another thing of note... I guess RIley is an official guest of the Royal Inner Chambers.  He hasn't missed in a night in a while now.  I suppose I am ok with that as long as it doesn't interfere with me draping myself across the head pillows of the concierge before she gets up to the Inner Sanctum.  Her loss is what I think.  Don't you agree?  Last up is the rotten egg I always say!  I will admit, however, it makes me very annoyed that she physically removes me to another location on the bed when she gets there.  Of course she does.  Once I have that spot all warmed up it is perfection.  I suppose it wouldn't be necessary for her to get physical with me if I either went directly to another spot when I went up or voluntarily moved when she gets up there.  I would rather take my chances and play deaf and deeply asleep so I might not get moved from the royal spot.  When I am moved I make it clear that it is unacceptable to be manhandling the royal body and there will be repercussions for such commonness.

Well, G-Fans, I hope you weather yet another storm with the same tenacity as I do in commandeering the royal bed.

It is all in the attitude.

TTFN!

Tessa and Raphael moving to their positions for their first square dance practice in the snow.
Lady's Walpole Reel might be the first one.

We are practicing some square dance maneuvers... I believe we are doing the Virginia Reel in this one.  Riley likes this one, It reminds him of home.  Allemande left, Allemande right, swing your partner!  (Raphael is the only one on board for any swinging!)

Bertie is having a sit-out.  It is in support of his Uncle Riley.  They refuse to do  any promenade stepping.

We are taking a quick break from do-si-doeing our partners.... 

Riley is still doing his impression of "Sitting Bull".  Him not moving is pretty unusual, although it seems to be getting more frequent lately.  He even slept in the other morning.  I was shocked.
Anyway, we are doing some chasse moves (the concierge thought it was sashe, but I looked it up and it said chasse, I don't know how to put the mark over the "e" so it sounds like "ay"....
