Watch Out, Pets


    Our sudden arrival into above freezing temperatures have created some hazards for our pets.  The warm weather has caused the buildup of snow on our roof to give way to the pressures of gravity.  Like glaciers, the masses of ice and snow on our roof have been slowly begun to inch downslope and are hovering precariously over the edge of the roof.  
    Periodically we hear loud “thuds” as the snow breaks off and falls to the ground.  During these times I am always so paranoid that our pets, who are liking to be outside in the mild temperatures, will be crushed by one of these icefalls.  So far we have been lucky and the snow buildup is rapidly disappearing, so the danger will soon be over.
