The Power of Youth

As we mentioned yesterday, everyone is acting like this is the first snowfall of the season. Oh, sure, we had snow back in November, but to us, it feels like we have been ages since the last snow. All of us have been out and enjoying it, but there is something about the power of youth . . . Typhoon and snow. May you get half the pleasure out of the pictures that Typhoon has had out of the snow.

Ah, the power of youth. And sheer exuberance. May you have half as much fun today as Typhoon has!

    So true the power of youth. I see that with our Chip in the snow. Now if Chip can be as wise as his oldest sister(14) Nala,it would great. But they sure bring us a smile. Gotta love a husky!

    I remember when my Aries would have an amazing time in the snow. The first time we got 18 with him he was just in heaven. The snow was too high for him in spots due to drifts and he just hopped right through it. I know I have pictures of it, but not sure if I recorded it. Bruce loves snow, but not like Aries. Hugs and kisses to the herd.

    Ice sez: Does that boy EVER run down? My hu-Mom says he makes her tired, just looking at the pictures of him running.
