Snow day!
What a beautiful snowfall. Roanoke has never looked better than it does this morning. I just wish I could have stayed home cuddled up with my pooches and my kitty, but alas, a deadline meant I had to venture out to work this morning.
I hope most of you get to spend the day snuggly warm at home, and for those who had to get to work like me, I hope you made it safely.
If you are lucky enough to spend time at home today, share a story about playing with your pets in the snow. And if take any great photos of your critters frolicking in the wintery mix, send them to me at nona.nelson@roanoke.com.

mapuserHere in Baltimore the cat cried and cried to go out. He goes out only on a leash, so I put it on him while I did not even put on a coat. I opened the door for him and - U-turn. Then he cried for some lap time.

Nona : →http://blogs.roanoke.com/thehappywag/My dogs reminded me of little kids, all eager to go outside and play in the snow. So we put their coats on them and sent them out to have fun. Of course, once they were actually out in it and got their feet cold and wet, they immediately wanted to come back in.

Ed S.Bauer (golden retriever / yellow lab mix) couldn't wait to get outside once I got home from work. He's 2 years old this year, so I think it was his third "real" snowfall. He loves it! He'll run along the ground and bite at the snow, then lie down and roll in it. He's a "nose to the ground" type dog (probably make a great tracking dog), and loves to sniff at the scents along the snow.
