Yellow Snow
Dec. 8th, 2008 12:50 pmIt snowed here all day Saturday. Accumulation was only about an inch but the freezing precipitation lasted the whole day so driving was a little dicey. It also meant I had to brave the cold yesterday to shovel off my driveway. I actually like doing that chore - it is kind of like my workout for the day and I always feel a sense of accomplishment after physical labor. Wasn't so thrilled with the 20 degrees F though. The cheeks (face, not butt) are a wee bit chapped.
While releasing my drive from the deep freeze most of my neighbors came out to do their own outdoor Stuff. Meaning four of the neighborhood dogs came out to play as well. There was much barking, running around maniacally, and laughing at the doggies playing in the snow. And, of course, much pooping and marking territory as dogs are want to do. I love dogs and the ones in my neighborhood are great but I really, really hate dog poop in my yard. If I wanted to clean up piles of shit I would have a dog of my own already.
By the time I got back around to finishing the driveway the snow that was left was all packed down with footprints and some of it was yellow - a present from the puppies! Yipee!
Maybe I'll get a cat.
