Sundays in My City


Lately, it's been snowy our neck of the woods, and I'm quite happy about it. 
I always say that if it's going to be cold, we might as well have snow. 
When I'm not keeping both hands on the wheel to stay on the road 
during my daily commute on country roads, 
I'm pulling over to take shots like this one...


Last night, we got 4-5 more inches of the beautiful white stuff. It floated down in big, fluffy flakes...


A little while ago, I mentioned that Cooper likes to make snow angels, 
and since Lisleman (I think) asked for pics, 
I took my camera out with the dog last night, hoping he would oblige me, 
and I'm thrilled to say that he did! Here's Cooper,
rolling in the snow like a pig in slop!


And here's his masterpiece!


In case you can't make it out, I've outlined it for you here...


Pretty ironic, isn't it? Cooper, a snow angel?

    The top photo is great, I hope you do have it in a frame in your home. I showed the dog angel to hubby. Cool dog.

    Do you have favorite trees along your route that you "watch" as the seasons go by?

    I love your new header, by the way.

    Thanks so much! Yes, I have two favorite trees along my route, and I love to takes tons of pics of them, year round. That top one is the only shot I took that day--It was so perfect; just begging me to snap it.

    I really should print that! Thanks.

    That is fantastic.. My boxer doesn't like snow or anything wet that has to do with water.. she's a sissy! However, I had a Golden Retriever that would pull us youngins around on sleds.. that was fun! Your dog is so cute!

    Love your tree pictures! They are always so beautiful, anytime of the year!

    May we borrow Cooper? Tootsie becomes a grasshopper in the snow. If she isn't digging her nose in it to see who has stopped by, she's bouncing around like a ball of flubber!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Snow looks so much friendlier when it's happening elsewhere.

    Beautiful! I love the shot of the tree.
    Also, hubby and I were just giggling today because our dog does the same thing!

    that is sooo nice that Cooper honored my request. What a good dog and we have never met. I owe him a treat (I stopped eating them BTW - old post about that).
    Thanks for the snow angel!

    Cooper is a great dog--and talented too! I never saw our dog roll in the snow. She likes to dig in it and sticks her head into it though. She prefers rolling on grass.

    The first picture could be framed. It's gorgeous.

    I think it's hysterical that your dog makes snow angels!
