We got snow today. Lots of snow, a suprising amount indeed for a first snowfall. The grass is all white. You know there's troubles when snow interrupts you mowing the grass. The puppy seems pleased with his first glimpse of the better sort of precipitation: after a moment of hesitation, he indicated his delighted acceptance of the white stuff that had mysteriously covered everything while he was playing inside by eating as much of it as he could conveniently manage. Actually, attempting to eat them is often his response to new things--leaves, rocks, squirrels--so I suppose I could have expected it. (A note to the wild-animal-lovers among the audience: you have no need to fear for the lives of the squirrels, as they are currently considerably quicker and more clever than our puppy. That doesn't mean he doesn't want to, though!)
