We've had a lot of snow lately, so much so that we re-scheduled our early music session because it's so hard to get to a parked car.

I'm so glad I'm not a dog.

Guest, thanks for the cute pic.

years ago someone posted a link to a diary of life in a very snowy suburb/town in North America. Items in the yard like cars & 6' fences etc, slowly disappeared under the normal winter snow.

Householder puts on skis to visit neighbours, loyal dog follows (looking like the dog in old dude's pic), cat takes a look & says 'Ya gotta be joking' or maybe 'Stupid Dog' before returning to the fire. I wish I'd kept the link cos the daily pics fascinated me.

Here in Juneau, Alaska, we've had no new snow since early January (bizarre!) but when we had a fairly deep snowfall in November, I scraped out a patch about 4 feet square and that's where all the dogs 'went'. Deep snow *is* a problem for dogs- especially for my little Chinese Crested. He objects to freezing his little bare bottom.

Can you imagine the pride of the man who was the first to ever write his name in the snow of the South Pole?

"...write his name in the snow of the South Pole?"

In shorthand I'd hope.

(what if his name was Joseph Wolfschleglesteinhauserbergerdorff? Oh.. I suppose he'd just write "Joe".)
