Good thing I have those gloves

[cleolinda]

So all the snow was supposed to come yesterday, and it was nice and swirly but the temperature was above freezing so it didn't stick, and it was kind of lame and nothing really happened.

Then I looked up from my computer this morning sometime after 8 am, and we've got a minor blizzard going.

Snowfari 2010, featuring Scout and Shelby:

Taken from the front porch with my actual camera, as opposed to my phone (you can see the huge flakes in the full-sized pictures):

 

Scout and Shelby, who have not seen snow in a year, are perplexed. (Sam is inside; I took him out front on his leash for afterwards.)

 

If you look closely, you can see the wind blowing in their little faces.

 

Shelby tries to pick a fight. (Eh, bored now.)

 

I tried to get a picture of how thick and fast the snow was flying at my face, but it didn't really work:

It was really fun standing out there with the wind and the snow and the swirling fluffiness, though. If it gets more interesting--enough to actually scrape together a snowball--I'll go back out.

Fin.

I wasn't going to say anything. But, yes. Same reaction here.

Ottawa here. We're already up to my knees! (And higher in the snow banks where the plough's shoved it aside, of course, but one doesn't have to wade through that. At worst, one climbs over.)
