I went to the mudroom door to take a photo of the blizzard in process, and decided blizzards are not good subjects for photography. Right now I would be taking a photo of what isn’t there: views of the neighbors’ houses. I can’t see them, and at times can barely see our own outbuildings. The horses seem to feel that it is a good day to stay inside of the barn, instead of their normal snow storm behavior of huddling outside, tails to the wind, as if they had no shelter. I am sure they do this to make me crazy.
El Paso County seems to have pretty much shut down for the duration of the storm, aided by the fact that many schools were already taking winter break. Jack decided to work from home and the dogs are curled up in their beds, so all is right with my little corner of Colorado.
