Playing Penguins

It is the middle of March and we still have a lot of snow on the ground.  The snow is hard as a rock.  You don't sink into is when walking on it.  While walking in the backyard I had the strangest sensation that I was floating, probably because I was walking at least a foot high than I normally do.  The snow also reminds me of a glacier.  The kids this afternoon were pretending that they were penguins  They also had fun jumping off the compost pile and rolling around.
