Thaw

It happens a couple times every winter, as it did this past week - a few days of unusually warm weather melts all the snow, and suddenly my pasture turns to mud.  At least it froze again so the horses aren't hock deep in slippery muck.  But now instead of a pretty white winter, everything is dull green and brown. 

I'd rather not have a muddy truck and muddy horses.  I'm hoping for more snow.  Today's flurries didn't stick, but it's a start.
