Snow!

It seems like nature realized I would need to be acclimated to Alaskan weather before moving up there.  Not that this is anything like what winters are like in Alaska (maybe spring? summer?), but the last couple of weeks it's been pretty cold and snowy around here.  This was what we woke up to this morning:

I'm glad the city plowed our street - that 1/2 inch was pretty treacherous.

Yesterday Ripley and I went to mom and dad's for our weekly dinner and he got to play in the snow with his friends.  I would say they had about 3-4".  Like he usually is in cold weather, he was a huge wuss and just wanted to spend the whole evening inside by the fire.  Get used to it, buddy!

That's Windisch and Davos in the background.  They love the snow and would rather lie in it all day than sit inside with my wussy dog.
