Waking to snow this morning was wonderful. Unlike most people, I love bad weather. Instead of letting my husband and dog go for a walk alone, I rushed out of bed forgetting my book and first cup of tea to go with them.
We live in a village on the outskirts of Geneva, Switzerland. It has about 2,500 people, farms and a château or two. We get less snow than at 500 or more meters up the mountains.
During the good weather, the field to the left was filled with corn. Mont Blanc is behind , but lost in the snow clouds today. To the left is another field populated with donkeys, ponies and a horse at different times. This morning four donkeys were mumphing hay from a cart.
Sherlock hates rain and water. It is amazing how long he can hold his sphincter muscles when it sprinkles, never mind pours. However, he loves snow, not knowing it is frozen, white rain. He frolicked, ran, sniffed and had a jolly good time.
