We already had 24&#8243; of snow, now we&#8217;re at an additional 20&#8243; and its still snowing outside. Thats a lot of snow. But the good news is I got another snowday. The shop is closed, but the ponies must still be fed. I made the treacherous journey out to the farm with my parents and husband and we were able to get the horses out for a few hours. The bad news is we lost power while we were out there. So needless to say the automatic waterers my dad had installed in all the stalls were not going to function. So we were resourceful and filled water buckets with snow hoping it would melt into drinking water until power is restored. We generously hayed all of the horses and tucked them in for the night at 1pm &#8211; hoping they could make it until our return tomorrow morning, whenever that may be.<\/p>\n<p>Not sure what tomorrow will entail, hopefully I can dig myself out. And I am shocked to see they are predicting that we may be getting MORE snow on Monday. I&#8217;m starting to think we&#8217;re entering into the ice age.<\/p>\n<p>But despite this bout of bad weather, I do still enjoy the snow &#8211; maybe I&#8217;m crazy. Get back to me after a few more weeks of more snow and maybe I will have changed my mind.<\/p>\n<p>So for your viewing pleasure&#8230;.here are some of my snowday photos:<\/p>\n<div
