Bus Takes a Backseat

I never would have believed it could happen but Alec's greatest love has changed from the bus to the snowplow. Would you believe that, even with all this snow, he saw one for the first time last night? We were poised at the window watching our neighbor using the snow-blower when the snowplow emerged out of a side street. We saw it several times, a few times in the distance. Alec kept watch at the window until bedtime, reminding me continuously (using sign language - highlighted words were signed) to watch for lights in the distance (he verbally used "dist" for this word) and keep listening. This photo was taken this morning while Alec took a break and the bunny kept watch - all this waiting is (apparently) rather tiring.
