Snow days!

Virg and his brother are intrepid outdoorsmen when it comes to snow days.  They can hardly wait for Mom to get them geared up before running out into this rarely seen winter wonderland. Virg's favorite is the snow shovel plow.  If Mommy would leave him alone out there long enough, he'd have the entire driveway, sidewalk and half the street cleared in no time, but you know how Mommies are about frozen fingers and toes.  Emmett prefers to hike around the perimeter inspecting the unique effects the snow produces in the front yard, porch, and nearby surroundings.  Of course, unable to continue to resist the lure of the one-inch snow cover, the last thing the boys had to do before calling it quits was flop down in the snow for some serious snow angel action.



The two explorers survey the newly snow-covered landscape.

 Snow is serious business around here.

Watch out!  It's angel-makin' time!
