White Out

[twilightpony]

Cloudsdale sent us snow today to build up our protective snow cover. If there are any ponies that don't go on holiday for three months in the winter, it's the weather ponies. It was a serious snow storm that they parked over Ponyville. I went out to admire and classify the snow flakes and I got plastered head to hoof in snow. It was light, insulating snow, but it was warm enough out that it stuck to everything. The windward side of the castle was completely white and the trees are very pretty. Ponies came out soon as the storm ended to clear the streets and walkways. That's a good thing because this snow quickly compacts into ice wherever we walk. For the castle's walkway, I have Spike. He blasts the snow away with dragon fire. He does a good job at that, even blasting away any weeds that may have taken hold in our walkway while he's at it.

Oh that's cool! (no pun intended)

Snow _is_ cool, in both senses of the term... Is that just a coincidence?

[flareblitzfury]

I think so!
