The Storm Has Arrived Early !!

This is Ava's first snow storm and as you can see she is pretty excited about it. The storm was supposed to start after midnight tonight. Most of the heavy snow was to be north of us by 10 miles, I-64. We were to get sleet with an ice storm. So when I turned on the patio light at 6:30am to let the hounds out I was a little surprised that my patio deck was all white.

A Surprise Snow

The two times I got up in the middle of the night, I would look out the window at my neighbors security light and could tell it was raining and the wind was howling. I didn't expect any rain but the last time the hounds came inside last night, it was cold outside and actually felt like snow was on the way as I stood on the patio. 

Leading the hounds and this morning, the dog to the patio first thing in the morning I didn't know there was any snow until I turned on the patio light. Watson and Henry loves the snow so they were right out in it. Walter didn't hesitate either. He has changed a little this year as he will go outside in bad weather. He did not before under any circumstances.
