Random Snow Shots

Just a few more pictures of the snow from the other day. It was really pretty--which I can happily say because I didn't have to drive in it. Usually the reality overrides the lovely for me. By Thursday the roads were in great shape so it was back to work to catch up on what needed to be done. The temperatures have gradually warmed up, and I was finally able to dump out all the water tubs. I use the black rubber ones, but when there have been too many below freezing days, they get frozen solid and not easy to dump out. Today (Saturday) the temperatures are into the fifties and it's nice outside, despite the snow cover. Much of it is melting, but I don't believe it will all melt off today. All the critters are basking in the sun and enjoying the warmth.

I'm not sure why but this picture of the birdbath, looking slightly tipsy and whimsical in a snow hat, makes me smile.

The chickens hesitate to step into the white stuff, but the rooster thinks it might taste pretty good.

The girls enjoying some 'free hay' and you can tell several of them opted to spend the night outside and are wearing snow blankets.

A little dark, but here is Boone enjoying the snow.
