My mother is living in the snow right now, the Belgian Ardennes have been blessed with up to 20 centimeters of snow. We had to be there last weekend, family obligations, and the dog just loved it. Critter is close to 11 years old now, arthritic, hardly any fat left on her bones, going bald... and spent most of Saturday night outside lying in the snow as happy as a pig in the mud !
But when she came in when we went to bed she installed herself on the large couch near the wood-stove and later that night I caught her sleeping belly-up and paws-up, basking in the warm glow of the banked fire.
The snow has gone here in Vilvoorde and it looks like we will have a dry and warm week (5°C).
