Evolution of a Snowman

Saturday, February 5th, 2005

This was the big one; the predicted snowstorm that had everyone scurrying for extra groceries, causing the local Walmarts to run out of essentials such as bread, milk and toilet paper. It wasn’t as incapacitating as predicted, but did give us enough snow for the boys to build one heck of a snowman!

See how proud they are! It is a terrific snowman, and such striking features!


Hmm. He seems to be leaning abit. What do you think, Murphy?


This snowman definitely has some balance problems.


It was amazing that, as the weather warmed and the snow began to melt, the snowman, instead of falling over, just kept increasing his tilt.

What can I say? The “tilt” continues.


Even in his death throes, our intrepid snowman will not give up.
We pay him hommage. Farewell, brave snowman.

    Wow, so much snow! I heard a rumor one of the other UltraChildren was in Japan now, but I thinkUB has been keeping his UltraBrother away from his friends...I’m not sure why...he must be ashamed of us. :-(

    No, it’s just that he has a horrible facial deformity kind of like the phantom of the opera, and is rather shy.  That or that I’m really behind with work, and he’s busy doing job interviews and having audiences with the Emperor and stuff.

    Thanks for the comments! I’ve missed posting, but have been “dry” and very busy. i thought I’d ease back in slowly with some pix, but my computer is so slow that it took me over an hour to do this post. So much with the timesaving!
