Snowbird

Chris and Holly spent Christmas, New Year's and most of January in Katonah at Barbara's house. This year that meant they saw a lot of snow.  I don't think Chris likes snow that much.  He makes a lot of noise when it snows and he seems to be irritated or agitated by it.  The very first time he saw it snowing, when he was very young, I brought a snowball inside for him to see.  Surprisingly he had no reaction and just ignored it.  I think it's seeing the snow falling from the sky that is off putting to him.  Sometimes rain also seems to get him upset and I've seen him launch into what sounds like a reprimand at the rain.  Ironically he loves water and loves the shower and is obsessed with getting spritzed with a water bottle.  Go figure!

 Below are two photos of Chris viewing the winter wonderland outside his suite at Maplemint Farm.
