I was sitting at the computer when something caught my eye. I looked to my right and out the patio door was a beautiful sight. A car had parked across the way with its lights on and the snow falling was back lit. And the snow was the huge, multiple flake snow out of the movies - only real. Big fat snow flakes, falling slowly and being lit from the back. Peter grabbed the camera and tried to capture what we could see. Unfortunately with the dim light, the snow looks more like rain in the first shot but try to imagine it.

Then we let Rockwell out and took a few shots. He looks suitably impressed with the big flakes in the first shot.

This next one was funny because of the giant snow flake in the foreground that was caught exactly at the end of his tail in the background.

When he came back in, he was covered in the flakes and out came the dog towel. Of course, as with all dogs I have known, he has to grab the towel with his teeth and the game is on.

Finally, we both do the “play bow”, although he is growling at me more than I am growling at him.
