On Saturday we got our first snowfall of 2012 in Pennsylvania.

I love the snow, but sometimes I’d just much rather stay in bed.

The wind can sting your eyes, and….

…when the snow freezes it can be quite difficult for little paws to trek around in.

But, duty calls and I gotta dig deep and just keep going…..

…because there are certain ponies that don’t take “snow days”…..

….and become quite angry when they don’t get their morning hay.

I don’t complain much about leaving my warm bed on snow days though….

….because after all, someone has to make sure all the necessary “scents” are still in their designated place after a blanketing of new fallen snow.
