in loving memory

Since the summer, we had been secretly awating the snow. We had plans for it.

We started in late December. We prepared with Internet research. We made huge mounds of snow which we left to harden. We took our time. It took us three days.


Cutting bricks out of the hardened snow mounds, we managed to build half of a wall. We tried to create a dome slant; we left each layer to harden overnight.


Then it got warm.


This post is in loving memory of our snow fort. K and I were sad to see it go, but you know what happens next? We get to start all over again!

And we will. I'll be sure to tell you all about it. Until then, happy winter!
