I spy . . .

Riley and I walked through the field this afternoon and he came to a sudden stop, lifted his right front leg, and stood totally still, completely focused on something in front of him. I couldn't see anything - the field is snow covered and there was nothing obvious, the snow wasn't even disturbed. After about a full minute of standing this way, he suddenly pounced. It turns out that there wasn't anything there. Possibly he smelled the trace of something that had passed through there before, we'll never know.

Only about an inch of snow today. Six or more inches expected tomorrow night into Wednesday. My boss already told me today that I don't have to come in if it is bad that morning.
