More Snow

It was snowing this morning for our walk and we had 2 inches of snow over night covering the ice. That was just enough snow that mom felt it would be safe to walk. Even with her two trekking sticks and boot tracks though she was slipping on the ice under the snow.

Diane and Joan helped keep her balanced by hanging on either side.

That was until Heather started a snowball fight then mom was used as a human shield.

The trees were beautifully decorated by this morning snow.

Amy called around 12:30 pm to see if I would like to meet her for lunch at the Hog Trough. She was coming to Hanna City to look at a dog but on the way got the message the dog had already been adopted out. Mike and Diane joined us at the Hog Trough. Mike picked up the bill.  As long as Amy was here I put her to work. Lance's owner was suppose to pick him up today but the ice and snow covered roads in his area and ours made him have to cancel. He asked for a video of Lance, wanting to see how he handled.  Amy was more than willing to help out with the video. Lance was brought into the stall, haltered, led, tied, and then asked to back. I just took the videos with the phone and thought I would be able to text them but they were resized so tiny that they were just emailed them to him.

He isn't cleaned up and was kind of wet from the snow. Also his halter came unlatched but he was still a good boy for everything we asked of him.  These Friesian foals try very hard to please.  It is still snowing out. We are suppose to get another couple inches by morning and then depending on the temperature either snow or rain tomorrow.
The pictures below were taken during the last snow. Just try to guess what could possibly have made these tracks in the snow.

 I took them from both directions. It was obvious what ever made them was heading from Joan's to Spark's house.

It was Joan that came up with the answer. These were Kabur's footprints as he was running when the snow was deep. Then we had a melt down but before it all melted we had a hard freeze.

We are having a quiet evening at home tonight and will turn in early.
