We have had quite a mild winter, but since Gary was participating in the Polar Bear Plunge to benefit wounded EOD warriors, mother nature has decided to make it well worth his time! Both Saturday and Sunday we woke to a spattering of snow on the ground and colder temperatures than we have seen most all winter. Saturday morning was the plunge, about 36 degrees outside and the water was about 40. Warmer than in recent years, but in winter I don't think it really makes much difference. He and his work buddies all jumped in the cold water and then we were off to drinks and lunch to warm those bodies!! (after a short wardrobe change)

Rethinking the Polar Bear Plunge :)
Also this morning we took Bentley to a dog park close by, we never knew about it until yesterday. Hopefully it will become more of a regular treat for Bentley. He is so embarrassing at the vet when he acts like he has never seen another human or dog before in his life, going crazy! We hope a little more socialization at the dog park will help with this, although I keep telling Gary that if we just got Bentley a BROTHER that would help too :) Of course after, he got a nice warm bath in our bathtub... smells so clean and nice now!!
