weekend addendum

Got half a foot of snow yesterday. (Had to run out in the evening to get gas for the snow blower...) It was coming down heavily with a healthy wind in the late afternoon when Sam and I went out to play. You can see him here well bundled up. He wanted to make a snow man. The snow was pretty dry, so we ended up with a snow blob, adorned with coal eyes, stick smile and carrot nose.

Sam's shovel (handle shown here) didn't make it in when we came in and when I went out later it was buried. This is the first forensic evidence to tell me where to dig to find it!

Due to have more lake-effect snow in the next few days. What fun. :-)
