Thanks everybody!! I have to say I've never seen Dave so determined. Now he's resting and warming up by the pellet stove. It's been a very exciting day!! More snow still coming down and high winds still blowing it. Lots of drifts!

deepwoods Enjoy taking photos in the area of Downeast Maine where I live near the shore with my husband and our dog, Drzl, who is one half greyhound and one half rhodesian ridgeback. I am not a professional, I just shoot what looks cool or interesting to me. Thanks for looking!
