Snow Hoppin'

When Redbush went skiing on the lease yesterday, Bonzi came with her as he always does.  In the last week there has been quite a lot more snow fall.  She has had to remake her trail and try to guess where the old one was, so it was a slow trip for Redbush.  Bonzi, on the other hand, wasn't phased by the deep snow, in fact enjoyed it as much if not more.  He did his usual sniffing of rabbit tracks, marking his territory after sniffing where the last coyote had been on the  trail. He would go  galloping through the bush after the occasional squirrel, then would come leaping through the bush even harder to catch up after realizing that Redbush had gotten a lead on him.    After digging through the snow,during rest times, he would stop to get Redbush to throw a stick that he had left there last time.  The video shows how deep the snow really was.  We're not far from the first day of spring now, but it's going to be a while before the snow disappears.  How is the snow in your part of the world, or do you have any?

Looks like lots of snow there - good moisture when it all melts!
And it looks like Bonzi was having a blast with his stick!

Oh yes, Bag Lady! Bonzi enjoyed himself immensely. When the snow melts, I'll have a lot of good run-off pictures. Hopefully, that's soon! I'm getting sick of winter!
