My trusty De Smet Farm Insurance Co. of South Dakota yardstick from the Brown County fair showed 17 inches on the patio table this morning. And it's still snowing. It's a good insulator for the hive:
Jackson thinks the snow is dandy.
Lucy, not so much. Not only is it too deep ...
... Jackson already has a size and weight advantage. In the snow, Lucy just gets buried.
So Lucy spends a lot of time standing by the back door, hoping I'll let her back in to her snug bed. Hey! says Jackson, Snow has a flavor!
My dog loves to play in the snow too, and sit in it, and eat it, and roll around in it. Oh to be a dog...
ReplyDeleteLook at you out there with your trusty ruler! Hope the bees are enjoying their warm winter blanky.
ReplyDeleteWhoaa... snow in October...
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty much hot and humid as usual here.... I would love to have a bit of snow!
Ahhh love the dogs!! I'm really wishing for a 2nd dog so mine won't be so lonely but I in the same breath I don't want to take care of another one lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad it doesn't snow here!!
De Smet! Didn't Laura Ingalls live there?
ReplyDeleteYour dogs are too cute.
17"? I'm so jealous. I think I've seen snow about 5 times in the last 10 years, and that's only when I've gone back to Chicago to visit family.
ReplyDeleteThe puppies are adorable.
Holy moly.
ReplyDeleteSnow so early!
Come on up to Canada to keep warm! ;-)
The poor trick or treaters are going to have a tough time in your neighborhood. I like snow, but NOT in October.
ReplyDeleteWhite! Now that's a different color! Your dogs in the snow always make me smile.
ReplyDeleteDogs look like they're having fun but I have to say, glad it's you and not me - yet. haa!
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween!
