the storm

 Well, the storm came and went, and it was glorious. 

 

We got dumped on, 32 inches of fluffy light white snow, and it was so beautiful!  

  

JP finally got to see how winter storms can be about community and helping each other bail cars out, 

waving to the only other person that you see braving the outside on a long walk, jumping into snow banks of freshly fallen snow, 

 

and of course how wonderful it can be to come back inside and warm up cozy to watch the wind whip the snow into even bigger drifts outside. 

 

It was just the weekend that we needed, no real responsibility to the outside world, an excuse to hunker down and hang with the pups.  

And on Sunday it was sunny and we got to tromp in the woods with Oboe, who was more than content to blaze his own snow trail.
