At last! Snow. I was starting to feel left out. It seems after waking up this morning to a wonderful bright sunrise that the snow would never reach us.

Now, looking out the window I could not resist a quick stroll out in the snow. There is something magical about it, brining back childhood memories of "No school!" or sledging down hills, snowball fights, etc. I have to confess, I am desperate to walk on a beach in the snow, still need to check that box. It's like christmas all over again!

Of course there are very important safety factors when driving, walking or simply being at home during the snow, and all of this should be listened to and carried out. -I've used putting a spade in the car as an excuse to go out for a walk in the snow again. I also took the opportunity to quickly make a snowman. Well in my retired greyhound obsessed life I ended up making a snow-hound.

So lets keep safe in the snow, but also treat ourselves with its beauty.
