It's Snowing!!

It's the first real snow of the winter.

Tibby is happy!

We took a long walk and she pranced the entire time.  She also rooted around with her snout in the snow after every third step.

We have more than 5 inches so far and it isn't stopping. 

Snow! Snow! Snow!

Lots 'an lots of SNOW!!!!

I'm glad Tibby likes it.  This was very nice fluffy snow (easy to shovel), but it blows around and drifts a lot.  We got 6.5 inches overnight and another couple inches during the day today.  And then 38 mile per hour winds.  Brrrrrrr!  I'm glad Tibby has a nice thick coat.  TTs were built for snow.  They have large flat snow-shoe like feet.  Their feet look like they are webbed.  They also have long eyelashes to protect their eyes from blowing snow and a double coat to keep them warm.

Not a Great Day

Yesterday was not a great day.  It was a great day until it started to snow around 3 o'clock.  Earlier in the day, Tibby and I went for a slushy hike.  That was fun.  We saw 2 deer and heard a bunch of coyotes (not so much fun).  

Then it started to snow.  I wanted to clean out my garage, so I could get my car inside before the big storm.  There was a bunch of recycling I needed to drop off, so I drove the 2 blocks to the recycling center.  On the way home I ran into a light pole!

Actually, I slid into a light pole.  We got 6.5 inches of snow and none of the roads were plowed.  Thankfully, I wasn't going very fast.  I hit the pole with the very center of the front of my car.  The pole shook a little, but there wasn't any visible damage to my car.  

The 2nd not so great (bad) thing that happened:  Tibby chewed on my Mom's glasses.  Ooops!  My Mom set them down for a second and Tibby stole them and chewed on the lenses.  The only thing I could say was sorry and I owe you a new pair of glasses.

As the above picture demonstrates, Tibby loves anything silver and my Mom's glass just happen to be silver.
