Snow Much Fun

What do you get when you take 2 snow enthusiasts, a pile of snow, and a weekend together?  Scroll down to find out :)

A trip to Spring Mill State Park

The first part was all nice and plowed, though some chose to ignore that...


Uh oh.  Can't go any farther?  Fleece is appalled!

We can fix that :)

Ah.  Fresh, undisturbed snow.  Let's walk!  Here are all of the pretty snow pictures, before we get to the goofy ones.

Thumbs-up for the swimming pool.  Who's in?
 
Trails!  Trail 5 goes straight to... the lake??




Kam thought it would be great fun to see a duck fall through the ice.  Or something like that.  Whatever it was, she was wishing harm on the ducks.  Gasp!



 Documenting our adventure

There shall be no guessing who's been here.




An artist always signs her work.


Look at all of that snow!  Are you thinking what I'm thinking?  It's too.... neat.
Before:

How much damage can we do?

Quite a bit, turns out
After: our Family Circus-style tracks

Good thing....
A) We're not vehicles
B) There's no grass

Next stop: Playground.  In the end, this slide didn't make the cut.

This one did.




A little action for you....



 

Getting "warm" and doing a little adjusting - to be honest, this pic made the cut just because I like the top of my hat :)  Gives new meaning to the term "snow boots" too, doesn't it?

Pretty scenery, pretty Kammy :)

Then there's goofy Kammy :)

And finally, destructive Kammy, playing the role of giant destroyer of tiny snow cities, a la Calvin of Calvin and Hobbes fame.

I think we go left here.

Quick!  Hide Fleece!

My turn for some destruction.  There were a lot of 'no ____ beyond this point' signs, including one for 'no games beyond this point'.  But we never saw one for 'no destruction beyond this point', so we took it upon ourselves to do so.

This was our 'destruction in honor of Kyle' moment.  We were sure if he were with us, he'd be knocking the icicles off of the bottom of the bridge with a long stick, or some such activity.  These are for you, Buddy!


I give this day 2 thumbs up!

Kam and Fleece each give it a big grin.

After our day in the park: Jug Rock of Shoals, IN, and a lookout point also in Shoals.



Congrats - you made it to the end!  Fun weekend with my Kammy :)

  1. Just to be perfectly clear, I wished the ducks/geese no harm. I just thought it was humorous to watch them struggle.
