1st snow that counts

Last night it it opened up and we woke up to ~3" on the steps of the outhouse. Maggie is loving it back to her old game of walk a few steps take a bite of snow walk some more eat then some more snow. The snow over the ground cover lightens up the forest and the silences the footsteps on our walks. I marked out my xc-ski runs in the backyard this weekend and took a warm shower. Life has never been this good.
