Snowy Day and Night

Yesterday's snowfall began around 5 a.m. By the time I went out to walk Emma, the snow was coming down hard.

It wasn't falling hard enough to discourage Chloe from stalking about the yard.

But it covered the ground, the bench , the trees, and the rock.

Inside her stall, Cupcake ate her breakfast. She has to stay in to keep her bandaged hoof dry so the abscess won't recur. She isn't happy to stay in.

Just outside her stall, snow covered the pasture and the round bales. In the afternoon, the snow turned to sleet.

 When I fed critters yesterday evening, Maggie met me at the kennel gat with one of her toys. She couldn't find her frisbee. The weather is never bad enough to discourage Maggie from playing.

She had to search a bit to find her toy after I'd thrown it, though.

Melody ate her evening meal outside. . .

. . . while Cupcake dined indoors.

By nightfall our driveway was iced over . . .

. . . and our house looked eerie as snow still fell.

In the redbud tree's bare limbs, Spotz the barn cat kept watch.
