I've written before about how intrepid our blind animals are, especially the ones who were born blind and don't know anything different. Watching Widget enjoy a new snowfall first thing in the morning is always a treat, because she loves to zip around like a little snowplow. The fact that the snow is almost as deep as she is tall only seems to add to her delight. Alayne got these photos of Widget the other morning.
As long as she can keep her nose above the snow level, she'll go anywhere:
Sometimes she just loves to see how fast she can go through it:
Other times she likes to bury her face in the fluffy stuff:

We did find Widget packing her bags this afternoon. For some reason she thought we were going to use the $20,000 from the Shelter Challenge to send her on a round-the-world cruise on the Cunard Line's Queen Mary 2. We had to break the news to her that we were going to use the $20,000 for medical expenses, not for her to go on a 108-day luxury cruise to distant ports of call. She took it well.
