This is what we woke up to early this morning — my Corgi, Butters, didn’t know what to do! Several times, she ran out in a semi-circle then ran back to the front porch. This first photo was taken when she got brave enough to venture further away.
Snow used to be a rare occurrence around here; recent years have brought more. A couple of years ago, we lost a lot of prickly pear cacti. They can handle the cold temps but we didn’t know to brush the snow off of the pads. As it melts, the pads keep drinking it in and eventually drink themselves to death.
On a side note, that rock form on the lower right is the Williamson family “camel rock” (I have always thought it looked more like a plesiosaur, like Nessie in Loch Ness). The rock was found on Bill’s great grandparent’s farm in SE Kansas — and has been located at family homes ever since. Many generations have had their photos taken sitting on “her” back! So of course she came with us when we moved to Texas.
