Snow memories? hhhhmmm. Well, when I was a kid we lived on this rather big hill. Our driveway butted up against the neighbor's driveway - so when it came time to shovel, we would shovel to that center space between the two homes. Well, once the snow was packed - it was perfect for snow tunnels!!! It was a kid's dream!Julie Koerberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17666868927315028423noreply@blogger.com
