The Making of Barry the Snowman (and son)

(Photos by Mike Hall)

Another five inches of snow fell in Indianapolis overnight, as measured by the yard stick on the top of one of our flat-roofed cars.  Before digging out again, I took a detour to make a snowman.  I wanted it tall, and in the front this time.

The Making of Barry the Snowman (and son) 

And when it was all done, Barry, I called the snowman, looked like this.

After a bowl of hot home-made chili and leftover sandwich from the night before,

I went outside again because Barry looked lonely.  He needed a son.

Now he is happy, but the cold froze his expression on his face.  I managed to get the spaces beside and behind the cars and all the snow off the vehicles, in case we had to go to the store or work something like that.

Now I can look at the backyard and relax, warm and comfortable from the inside.
