Our ski outing was changed to HIKE as john had some technical difficulty with ski (broke?). Will try for tomorrow, but I am not sure there will be enough snow where we hope to ski.
as is where we hiked about 10 miles south of my home had a Lot less snow.. we get the lake effect & it is heavier.
Sharing a few pix as many of the scenes I SAW reminded me of one of my favorite artists: Bev Doolittle. These pix aren't totally "it" but do have a bit of the flavor of her snow scenes.
for anyone unfamiliar with Bev, she is the camouflage artist & topics are animals, nature, spirits, horses, Indians...mostly
Here is her website:

be sure to click on the gallery links on bottom to see more of her work
and the last one of Toby doing his best Hippopotamus imitation

Your dog doesn't go along to ski but to swim? We barely got to 20º today and til I saw that photo of Toby, I'd been able to keep warm! LOL!
I love Bev Doolittle's work. Seeing her painting Pintos against the snow years ago made me search out her other work.

I Love your Pics, Dear Dolly, Especially the One of Toby! From your Descriptions and Pics of him, he is a Very Wonderful Friend. : )
A Few Minutes Ago, I Looked Up from my Computer, and there were 6 Bluebirds Sitting on the Little Barbed Wire Fence at the Back of the House, and a Male Cardinal was a Few Feet Away from them, Foraging Among the Leaves and Grass; what Lovely Birds these are! The Colors our Lord Created for the Cardinal, both Male and Female, are just Incredible. How Very Beautiful are the Works of our King!
