Recent snows have been super dense. Tree branches normally high enough to be well out of the way sagged down to “tractor windshield” level.
I was as careful as possible but one branch got tangled into the gap between the cab and mirror. I didn’t realize it until I heard an ominous “snap”. Lucky for me, the branch broke instead of my mirror! It pretty much obscured my whole field of view. I had to drive a few yards practically blind just to find a place to park so I could get out and untangle the branch (and the huge pile of snow it was holding).
They say it’s April. I have my doubts.
The snow was so wet that parts of it were tinged blue. It was exactly the color I’ve seen on videos of glaciers. Very pretty. My snapshot couldn’t capture the deep glorious blue, but it’s there.
You know who’s loving it? My dog. She has zero fucks to give about my hassles plowing the stuff. It’s a dog jungle gym, playtime fun, happy zone to her. The day included a good deal of zooming about.
And posing on top of piles.
And more zooming.
And investigating whatever critters are tunneling about in the stuff.
Dogs know how to be happy! I should learn to be more like my dog. Though there would be drawbacks. Mrs. Curmudgeons would rather I don’t start shedding on the carpet.
