It’s snowing to beat the band, kids! And expected to go for another 8 hours.

Woohoo! Enjoy the weather LJ, and build a snow fort. LOL

Snowforts!

Now there is real fun!

As youngsters back home, we had kids who’d break our forts down, and then an uncle showed us how to make ice blocks and how to weld them together with water. Once you had them in place and solid as a masonry wall, we’d coat it with snow. When the big kids hit it looking to knock it over, they left under a barrage of snowballs and catcalls, and half dislocated shoulders. One of those forts was good until Feb. at least.
