A couple days ago we got 10 inches of snow in one night. People up here walked around just beaming. Finally! The bumps in the ski, snowmachine, mushing and skijore trails would finally be smoothed out. No more skidding around on dirt!
Not only that, but it has warmed up to a positively balmy 20° ABOVE so everyone is having a bit of a respite from having to put on so much bleeding gear every time one goes outside! For instance, I didn't wear a hat all day today. Whee!
The dogs like the snow, too.
This is the path to the back yard.
First order of business is to rub that fence!
Hey! Who's that yelling at us?It's a Whiskey Jack! (aka Gray Jay, aka Camp Robber) This guy hopped down close and "talked" a bunch to the dogs, until both were standing up trying to get to him.
Spitting out and tossing snow to try to get Ole to play. Ole: BARK BARK BARK (translation: PLAY with ME!)Waiting for the next round.
I like snow.A lot.
