Hi Troy, Gord , Mr. Tree, Bojan, Barbara, Courtenay, Mumj, Sam, Stef and Monnie!
Gosh, Troy. I think of you being way our in Africa and I bet this IS refreshing for you to see snow!
*
Gord, Thanks! They are cute in person, too!
*
No, no, Mr Tree! You are right! They move to the shade right away if it gets too warm! :)
*
Bojan, I love this pair! They really are sweet together. :) :) Thank you!
*
Yes, Barbara! I think this is why they do!
*
Why YES, Michelle! how did you know!? HA! You are funny!!!
*
Hi Courtenay! Well, I was told a while back that less is more. I'm glad you like this little image! :)
*
Hi Mumj! I love fresh snow. It's so pure and beautiful. This was actually a trick to get them out there without leaving marks in the snow. Thank you lots!
*
Thanks Sam!!! :D
*
Thank you Stef!
*
Hi Monnie! This might be my last of the series. I took lots of shots but these were my favorites. There might be one more...not sure. So glad you liked it and thanks for your kindness and fun!

Graham Robards January 05, 2010
HA-HA-HA, well to tell you the truth my dearest sister I thought it meant "you are so funny" so I checked and looked up Australian slang, it means to wag school.Apparently I used the wrong word but have been using it for years and so have others so what it really means I don't know HA.
Hope I wasn't swearing at you - LOL. #8272626
