Ice, Snow and Wind - Oh My!

Happy Groundhog Day. Enjoying the blizzard? I am. We got plenty of ice, but lucked out in the city with only a few inches of snow. Enough ice to cancel all schools and businesses around us, but not so much that we can't go out and enjoy the lovely snow and see the beautiful ice covered trees.


This is my Redbud tree - even the seedpods still left on it are encased in beautiful ice...

And my overturned pots awaiting spring look like little snow mushrooms, don't they?

And Fox enjoys playing in the snow...

Here he is after eating many homemade snow cones outside...

He says they taste great and he'd like you to see his dog house...


He's very glad he doesn't have to stay outside in it. Look at the icicles all along it!
There is nothing quite like a dog enjoying fresh fallen snow. Fox kept bugging me all night and today to go out and PLAY! He danced and cavorted with glee out in the falling snow, scooping up mouthfuls every few minutes. He was so happy to run around in it. It reminded me of how much fun I had as a kid playing in the snow and then coming in to thaw out and have a warm cup of cocoa...or in Fox's case a milkbone. ;)

Hope you all are safe and warm!
