Did you get a chance to build a snowman yet after our fun snow storm? This is mine. So far no angry message from the HOA but I’m still waiting. In the mean time did you know that if you DID build one you’re in very fancy company. Michelangelo made one! Back in his early 20’s he worked for a politician who, after a big snowfall, ordered him to go into the courtyard and make a man out of snow. We don’t know exactly what it looked like but eyewitnesses say it was very beautiful. It’s also a really good workout. On average people burn 238 calories when making their snow pals. And if you get sad watching them melt in Switzerland they blow them up instead. (Not actually recommending this and don’t do that and then blame me for that. This is me officially telling you not to do that to absolve myself from blame.) They actually build a giant wooden one with a bunch of pyrotechnics stuffed into his head and then light the bottom on fire and wait and watch for it to reach the head so it can blow up. The shorter time it takes to blow up the sooner spring comes. Take THAT Groundhogs Day!
