This is what I woke up to this morning

No, that's not snow, it is ice :surprise: Here are a few pics of the boys out in it this morning..
I want the ball!

Mom, How do I walk in this stuff?

Playing tag...

After all that play, they both curled up for a good long nap.. :happy:

Sorry about the pic quality, I still haven't learned how to take good actionss pics of a black lab

I'm in Tulsa. Glad you took pics... I didn't because you really can't see the treachery of the ice.
It's there and it is hiding and it's going to be even worse tomorrow. Be careful, neighbor!

 

[imported_nellies mom]

Cool pictures.

 

[millstonekennel]

Thats a lot of ice.

 

[Malcarjaz]

:surprise: Wow, glad the ice is gone here! be careful. Cool pics of the kids playing by the way.

 

[k8show]

Brrrrrr! Looks like the boys don't mind a bit.

Okay, ice/snow virgin question here. If that's ice, why are the dogs making footprints in it? I don't see footprints being made on ice when ponds freeze over. (Of course, I'm talking about seeing it in pics. I've never seen a frozen pond in my life.)

 

[Paddysmom]

Therein lies the treachery. The ice is covered by a thin layer of snow. In one of those first pics you can actually see the glisten of the ice with no indentations from their paws.

It is small ice pellets, kinda like sugar, rather then snowflakes, more like sleet. There is also a solid frozen layer underneath.

Hi there neighbor! We are about 20 miles south of Norman. Heard you guys got hit pretty hard up there, too. Be careful!

 

[HersheyK's Dad]

Be carefull. I hate ice storms. Thankfully we don't get many here, maybe once every 5 years. We call them freezing rain. No snow on top and it can be 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Rear wheel drive, front wheel drive, all wheel drive, 4 wheel drive, doesn't matter. If you don't have tracks with cleats on them, you might as well not try.

That looks nasty. The labs like it though, don't they? Cute pictures. :happy:

 

[justine]

Looks like they had lots of fun out there!

Tulsa!? I didn't have a clue that you were that close, and Ceasersmom even closer! I'm just a couple hours south of both of you down 75 into TX. 30 miles East of Sherman/Denison. We are almost on the Red River border with "all ya'll". :laugh:

This was our day ...

Hey Cappy! Shoot ya'll are just right down the road! :laugh: Hope you are staying warm.

I have been down through that area on our way to I-20, or was it I-10? I always mix those 2 up... . If I remember right that's a lonely stretch of Hwy 75.

Could be either ...

And as far as mixing things up is concerned, please be careful about that. I once knew a blonde gal from OK who got the jars of putty and vasoline mixed up. Guess what happened that night?

Geez, Cappy! Now I have to clean the pepsi off my computer screen! :laugh:

 

[RangerMom]

Stay safe folks. For the record, I hate ice storms. We may be getting some ice with our snow tonight into tomorrow. Ugh!

 

[Felix]

Labs in snow (or ice) are always great to sea! :laugh:

And taking pics of a black dog is always difficult

 

[Paddysmom]

Hahahaha!! Oh Jim! You're just down the pike a piece from us all!
Dintcha know that after all these years?

:laugh:
