The snow here in Nebraska is too light and fluffy to make a snowman plus it is too darn cold!! Maybe another snowstorm.

Unfortunately of the three I had in my yard it promptly rained and melted them! Snow here is to fluffy right now for a snowman.

It's rarely warm enough in Northern Michigan to build a snowman in the Winter. That's a Spring and Fall activity. We've got the snow, but not the packing variety. Can't ice skate on the lakes, either. That was a big disappointment when we moved here from downstate. Luckily there was an ourdoor rink then because skating indoors just isn't the same.

Only if I could make one in front of the roaring fire I'm enjoying!

that sounds like the weather we had here in PA; it snowed a few inches & the next day it was above freezing & sunny!
