A Walk in the Snow

It was sunny and mild, only a little below freezing, so we took a long walk. Jake and I admired the cattails in the snow (okay, he was waiting for me to move on).

Here, he shows how deep the path has been trodden into the snow,

and here I show how far you sink if you step off the path. That place was not quite knee deep.

There were some mouse tracks (I think they are mouse),

and I always love the shadows of the snow.

Annie loves the snow, even if she does gain 5 pounds when it is this mild. And we were home before dark!
