la premiere neige

Yesterday we had our first dusting of snow.
Pretty?  - Yes,
Cold?  - No, freezing!
Welcome?   -  Well I'm afraid that when you have horses, the cold weather hangs heavy because there's so much more work needed to keep them fit and happy.

Our neighbour races trotters for fun and  this morning my path crossed that of his jockeys, out exercising the horses ..... suddenly winter didn't look so bad!
