What beautiful pictures! You take trips that most of us can only dream about. I love being outside in the snow at night. It is so quiet and peaceful. It must be doubly so in such a region as where you live.

I have a little red light thingie on Ripley's collar. It blinks when he moves so that I can see him at night in the back yard. I have to smile when it stops blinking as he nears a tree because I know what he has stopped to do.
