Blanket of Snow


 My son had half a day of school yesterday, so he helped me shovel the driveway so we wouldn't have a

a big job this morning. Old man winter turned to rain late yesterday, and back to snow last night, really leaving us a mess. After breakfast, I got up to put on boots and my coat when to my surprise, someone was plowing my driveway!
We couldn't recognize who it was. The plow driver was all wrapped-up with a scarf around his lower face and a hood. It turned out to be the neighbor that used to live in front of us. (He moved but still owns the house out front.) How lucky we were. We did have a lot of shoveling to do, but the majority of the driveway was done.

I wanted to post a photo of Isabel in her winter outfit. She's never sure what to do in the snow.

It's a puzzle to a lot of us ... glad she has a nice warm coat.

Isabel is beautiful. Our dog can't get enough of the snow! We got slammed in NJ too, and more to come this weekend!

I think your pooch's outfit is warmer than my winter stuff. She's a lucky girl.

And you're a lucky guy to have such a fine ex-neighbour.

So thoughtful of your neighbour. Isabel looks like she's 1/3 dog 1/3 deer (her face) and 1/3 Barbie (in that pink coat)! Love the hammock shot.

Cute dog! In spring I bet that's an inviting spot to rest.
