An Overnight Snow Storm

We've been experiencing some really warm days lately, temps were in the high 50's and high 60's even.  Everyone was thinking of Spring and gardens when in came a brief snowstorm overnight.  We do need the moisture so it's nice to see some 8 inches of snow.

The dogs have fun in it and hopefully the dry ground will soak it up. We have had a very dry winter here. Just another case of anomalous weather patterns.

Regardless of the conditions, Tuffy the Border Collie insists on me throwing her some balls. So I did thinking she wouldn't be able to find them.  She did.  :)

She is holding a tennis ball in this first picture.  She really had to dig for it, too. 

They tell us to expect another inch or two today then tomorrow it should be up to 56 degrees again.

Believe me, you don't want to be underneath those trees when the snow start falling off.  It's quite a wet surprise.

Not so easy to find those balls out there.  heh
