Jim Burns:
Funny though, we were
never afraid of the snow tunnels and the snow caves collapsing on us!
After
the snow was piled up along driveways and in parking lots we'd attack
it
with shovels, digging tunnels through it or making caves. I remember
one we
made that had several rooms connected by tunnels. One room had heat
and
lights provided by a homemade burner made of a tin can stuffed with
rolled
up cardboard soaked in parafin wax.

Thanks Jim, I remember THAT winter I was 12 yrs old, we did the same
thing and also my friend's dad pulled us along on pbluic roads as we
rode on a sled. I miss being young. This year I'm gonna help my
daughters w/ their igloo and snowman for sure.
