That is pretty much it. It usually snows in Maine- a lot in the winter months. And, for the most part around here, life continues on in its normal manner. It means shoveling out paths to get to the animals to feed and/or water them, but other than that unpleasant task, massive snow falls mean a homey day with everyone snug inside. And, in terms of the animals, in my experience, snow is not nearly as bad as bitter, frigid temperatures for our critters to weather. If it is snowing, the temperatures are above freezing, at least. The fowl are protected in their coops with fluffy feathers, the mammals in their stalls with thick, furry coats to keep them warm. The piggies, who have neither, have a nice pile of hay to burrow into together inside their stall in the barn. And, Ellie, is planning to ride out the storm in the comfort of her own private convalescence room.
