A Snow Situation

Christmas Eve and there is STILL snow on the ground. In fact, snow has been falling on and off the last 5 days! The Portland/Vancouver area has not had this much snow for this long in 40+ years! Of course I have not gone any where in the mess but Russ has been an absolute sweet heart making sure I get out to see Warren every other day or so. He is in excellent care at the barn where he is boarded. They are having no trouble with the snow and ice, other than having to haul water to the buckets as opposed to having it right at the stalls. Warren is happy as can be standing out in the snow when he has his stall door open. The temperatures have been hovering in the mid to upper 20s so it really hasn't been to bad since the teens we had earlier in the week. It is actually starting to warm up today, we are at 33 and snow is starting to drip off the trees! We've got a long way to go though, there is a good 10" of snow to melt through.

Russ wanted to take warren for a ride in the snow, so I obliged him. Warren got a kick out of plowing through all the white stuff! That boy needs a harness and a sleigh!!!
