the idea: make a sculpture of Nemo out of snow 

Thanks to Snow Storm Nemo I’ve been housebound all day.  I slept in, did laundry, worked on my book, and watched TV until finally I needed to actually do something.  In the end, I decided to go outside.

It was 6:30 and there was about eight inches of snow when I first went out.  I walked around the street a bit, made a snow angel, and then decided to make a snowman.  The snow was perfect for packing.

As I made the first snowball I realized that rather than make a snowman I should make a snow fish.  Specifically, a Snow Nemo.  I mean, Nemo has obviously found us so all I could do was return the favor.

It took a little over an hour and a half to complete the snow sculpture of Nemo which is about five feet long and three feet high.  The snow is still coming down pretty hard so we’ll see if he’s still there when I wake up.  Check back tomorrow for pictures!
