I know it's a controversial topic, but I haven't hated the lack of snow in northeastern Indiana this winter. I haven't hated NOT shoveling, and I haven't hated NOT driving on snow and ice.
But it was bound to come eventually, and yesterday was that day!
Ryan spent much of the morning clearing WillowBridge of all the snow, but in the afternoon, we were able to leave for a mini-retreat at a state park! (It's just us...in a cabin...and the two hour crazy deep sleep nap we took last night has already made the whole thing worth it!)
Lexi came with us, and I have to show you her first snow experience. (Or at least her first snow experience with us. It did snow once before she came to live with us, and I don't know if she got to go play in that snow.)
You should know that in general, Lexi is very leery of anything new. To be fair, as soon as she realizes every one of those things is not her enemy, she has LOVED very nearly everything. But first introductions are always comical. The first time we gave her a treat, she pounced on it. She was not fond of our front yard last week when we introduced her to it. So we didn't have high hopes for the snow.
You guys...SHE LOVED IT. She was made for snow. (Our first parting of ways in taste.) She was NOT happy when we told her it was time to come inside.

Dogs and snow is the best!!
Love it! She's adorable!
OH HOW FUN! Our great grand puppy LOVES the snow also and he's a perfect match! :)
Oh how lovely that she is a snow baby! Do you remember the sheltie we had in Marion? She would run for two hours in the snow and still as unhappy whe we wanted her to come in. Snow is great exercise for happy snow dogs…Lois
Hope you'll share what state park your cozy retreat took place in! We need to schedule a getaway and that's just the kind of place we love!
Lois - I do remember her!!! I didn't remember her love for snow, though!! ;)
Judy - We are at Pokagon State Park in Angola!!
